What this record means
The record shows that the mark “HAPPY SUMMER SOLSTICE” is dead and was abandoned because the applicant did not respond to an Office action. The owner listed is Joe Patterson, an individual, and the mark was filed on January 31, 2013 under an intent‑to‑use basis. The goods covered are clothing items—hats, pants, shirts, shoes, socks, and sweatshirts—under class 025. Because the mark is no longer active, it does not give the owner control over the wording in any other context, but the specific clothing goods listed are the closest area of concern for anyone using a similar name on apparel. The prosecution history shows a non‑final action in May 2013 and an abandonment notice in December 2013, with no later maintenance or enforcement events recorded. Since the supplied history contains no visible enforcement activity, the record suggests that while the mark is not enforceable, a similar name on clothing could still raise a concern based on the goods listed.
