PASSION

What this record means

The record shows that the mark PASSION is abandoned, with the last status date of Oct 31 2012, and the owner listed as Haze Tobacco, LLC, a Texas limited‑liability company. The application covered only class 034 goods—hookah tobacco, smoking tobacco and tobacco—first used in commerce on Nov 17 2011. Because the filing was limited to those tobacco products, a similar name used for anything outside that category would be the closest area of concern, while uses in unrelated fields would be farther from the scope shown here. The record does not give the owner control over every use of the word “PASSION.” The prosecution history shows a series of office actions in early 2012 followed by an abandonment notice on Oct 31 2012 after the applicant failed to respond, which is why the application never reached registration. No oppositions, cancellations or court actions appear in the supplied history. I'd treat this as a moderate concern if you plan a tobacco‑related brand, but the risk drops sharply for other product types.
