What this record means
The record shows that the mark “GROUNDED” is dead, having been abandoned because the applicant did not respond to an Office action. The owner listed is Silvia Lindley, an individual. The mark was filed on February 24, 2014 under an intent‑to‑use basis for class 025, covering athletic apparel such as shirts, pants, jackets, footwear, hats and caps, and athletic uniforms. A similar name used in the same or closely related apparel categories would raise the closest concern, while uses in unrelated goods or services would be farther from the scope shown. The record does not give the mark control over every use of the wording. No enforcement activity appears in the supplied history. The last meaningful event was the abandonment notice on January 4, 2017. For anyone thinking of a similar name in athletic apparel, this history suggests a notable risk of conflict.
