What this record means
The record shows that “THE POWER OF THE PENNY” was a registered service mark on the Principal Register, owned by Elaina Redmond, but the registration was cancelled on January 6 2023 because the registrant failed to file a Section 8 declaration. The mark covered educational and entertainment services, specifically conducting classes, workshops, recreational activities and art events in financial literacy, civic engagement and philanthropy, plus distribution of related course materials and consulting. A similar name would raise the closest concern in those educational and consulting contexts. The record does not give the owner control over every use of the phrase; it only protects the specific services listed. The prosecution history shows a normal sequence of office actions, acceptance, and a Section 8 renewal reminder, ending with the cancellation. No oppositions, extensions, or court actions appear, so the supplied history shows no enforcement activity. If you’re thinking of a comparable name, be aware that the cancelled registration still signals that the owner once claimed rights in that niche, and the phrase could still be problematic in similar educational or consulting services.
