AFTONAIRE
Dead · Cancelled DEAD/REGISTRATION/Cancelled/Invalidated
What this record means
The record shows that AFTONAIRE was registered on the Principal Register to Afton House Corporation on Oct 29 1974 but was cancelled on Apr 7 1981 because the registrant failed to file an acceptable Section 8 declaration, and the mark is now dead. The filing does not list any goods or services, so the visible scope of protection is essentially undefined in the record; a similar name would only raise a concern where the owner has historically used the mark in connection with whatever goods or services they actually offered, which the record does not reveal. Because the registration is cancelled, the record does not give the owner control over every possible use of the word “AFTONAIRE.” The only maintenance event recorded is the Section 8 cancellation in 1981, and no opposition, cancellation proceeding, or other enforcement action appears in the history. I'd treat this as a modest concern – the name is no longer protected, but you should still watch for any unrecorded use the owner might have that could affect a similar brand.
