What this record means
The record shows that the mark “RUMPELSTILTSKIN” is dead, having been abandoned because the applicant, Creative Characters, Inc., failed to respond to an office action. The mark was filed on February 10, 2006 and abandoned on September 19, 2006. It was registered on the Principal Register for goods in class 024, which includes bath linen, bed linen, cloth coasters, comforters, curtains, dining linens, draperies, duvet covers, handkerchiefs, household linen, kitchen linens, lap robes, lap rugs, place mats not of paper, quilts, shower curtains, table linen, textile wall hangings, throws, and towels. A similar name would raise the closest concern for use in the same or closely related household textile products. The record does not give the owner control over all uses of the wording, only the specific goods listed. No enforcement actions appear in the supplied history. For someone considering a similar name, the abandoned status means the mark is no longer protected, but the specific goods listed remain a potential point of concern if the new use overlaps those items.
