FUN.
Dead · Cancelled DEAD/REGISTRATION/Cancelled/Invalidated
What this record means
The record shows that FUN. is a cancelled Principal Register mark owned by Nathaniel Ruess; the registration was voided on Feb 24 2020 after the owner failed to file a Section 8 declaration. The mark covered Class 009 audio‑visual recordings—compact discs, downloadable music files, DVDs and similar digital media—and Class 041 entertainment services provided by a musical group, including live performances and an internet music portal. A later‑filed name that is used for music recordings, digital media or live musical entertainment would run into the closest record‑based concern, because those are the exact goods and services listed. The record does not give the owner control over unrelated products or services, nor does it extend to every use of the word “FUN.” No opposition, cancellation proceeding or court action appears in the history, so the supplied file shows no visible enforcement activity. I'd treat this as a meaningful concern if you plan a similar name in the music‑recording or live‑performance space.
