What this record means
The record shows that the mark “FORMS” was registered on the Principal Register on January 28, 2014 under class 041 for the presentation of musical performances, but it was cancelled on September 4, 2020 because the registrant, Advance Magazine Publishers Inc., failed to file a Section 8 declaration. The cancellation means the mark is no longer active, yet the record still indicates that the owner once claimed rights to that wording for that specific service. A similar name used for presenting musical performances would raise the closest concern, while uses in unrelated fields would be farther from the scope shown. The record does not grant control over every use of the word “FORMS.” No enforcement actions such as oppositions or cancellations are listed, so the supplied history shows none. For someone considering a similar name, the cancelled status reduces the risk, but the past registration in the same service area still suggests a potential concern if the name is used in that context.
