What this record means
The record shows the application for “JUST BECAUSE IS REASON ENOUGH” is dead – it was abandoned on Nov 28 2016 because the owner never filed a required Statement of Use after the Notice of Allowance, and the USPTO mailed an abandonment notice that same day. Hershey Chocolate & Confectionery Corporation is listed as the owner, and the filing covered only class 030 goods described as “candy; chocolate candies.” A similar name would raise the closest record‑based concern if you were using it for candy or chocolate products, since that is the exact scope the USPTO examined. The record does not give Hershey control over every possible use of the phrase in other industries or product categories. This was a Principal Register filing, not a Supplemental Register entry, so there is no supplemental‑register sequence to note. The history contains no oppositions, cancellations or court actions, so no enforcement signals appear. I'd treat this as a meaningful concern if you plan a candy‑related brand, but the risk drops sharply outside that narrow goods category.
