TGIT

What this record means

The record shows that TGIT is an abandoned application – the USPTO marked it “dead” after no Statement of Use or extension was filed following the Notice of Allowance, with the abandonment notice mailed on July 16 2018; the owner listed is American Broadcasting Companies, Inc. The filing covered only Class 030 staple‑food items such as bagels, biscuits, candy, coffee, ice cream and related prepared foods, so a later use of “TGIT” for similar food products would create the closest record‑based concern. Because the registration never reached the Principal Register and was never moved to the Supplemental Register, the record does not give the owner control over every possible use of the word in other industries. The prosecution history shows a series of extensions for filing a Statement of Use before the final abandonment, but no later maintenance actions. The supplied history contains no oppositions, cancellations or court actions, so no enforcement signal appears. I'd treat this as a modest concern if you plan to market food items under a similar name.
