FLOWERCAUSE EVERY BOUQUET SERVES A PURPOSE

What this record means

The record shows that the service mark “FLOWERCAUSE EVERY BOUQUET SERVES A PURPOSE” was registered on the Principal Register to FlowerCause, Inc., a California corporation, but the registration was cancelled on Oct. 18 2019 because the owner failed to file an acceptable Section 8 declaration, so the mark is no longer live. The only goods and services listed are “Charitable fundraising; Charitable fundraising services by means of selling, distributing and delivering flowers” in International Class 036, meaning a similar name would raise the closest concern for fundraising activities that involve flowers. The record does not give the owner control over every use of those words in unrelated fields. The prosecution history shows the usual examination steps, a publication for opposition in Dec. 2012 and a registration in Mar. 2013, but no supplemental‑register filing. The latest meaningful event is the Section 8 cancellation notice in 2019, and the supplied history shows no oppositions, cancellations or court actions. I'd treat this as a meaningful concern if you plan a flower‑related charitable fundraising brand.
