JUST BECAUSE YOU COULD, DOESN'T MEAN YOU SHOULD

What this record means

The record shows the mark “JUST BECAUSE YOU COULD, DOESN’T MEAN YOU SHOULD” is dead – it was abandoned on Feb 10 2014 because the applicant never filed a required Statement of Use after the Notice of Allowance, and no extension was filed thereafter; the owner listed is Paramount Pictures Corporation, a Delaware corporation. The only goods and services covered are “association services, namely, promoting the interests of intellectual property rights holders in the motion picture, television, music, computer software, and video game industries; public advocacy to promote awareness of intellectual property rights and laws…,” all in International Class 035, so a similar phrase used in that same advocacy or industry‑association context would raise the closest record‑based concern. The record does not give Paramount control over every possible use of the wording in unrelated fields. Because the application was on the Principal Register, there is no Supplemental Register sequence to note. The latest meaningful event is the abandonment notice on Feb 10 2014, and the supplied history shows no oppositions, cancellations or other enforcement activity. I'd treat this as a meaningful concern if you plan to use the phrase in a similar IP‑advocacy or entertainment‑industry context.
