What this record means
The record shows that the mark “POWER IN THE PEW” is dead, having been abandoned because the applicant did not respond to an Office action. The owner listed is Hollister C. Douglas, an individual. The mark was registered on the Principal Register for class 009, covering audio and video recordings of sermons, audio books, DVDs, downloadable audio and video recordings, CDs, and MP3 files featuring sermons. A similar name used for those specific types of religious audio‑visual content would raise the closest concern. The record does not give the owner control over every use of the wording, only over the goods and services listed. The prosecution history ends with an abandonment notice on July 1, 2016, and no enforcement actions appear in the supplied documents. For someone considering a similar name, the abandoned status means the mark is no longer enforceable, but the goods and services listed remain a potential point of concern if used in the same field.
