What this record means
The record shows that “HAPPY BOWLS” is a dead, cancelled registration on the Principal Register, owned by Paulette Davis, an individual. The mark covered cups (class 021) and a range of clothing items such as hats, shirts, socks, sweatshirts, t‑shirts, tank tops, and undergarments (class 025). A similar name would raise the closest concern in those exact goods, especially if used for cups or the listed apparel. The record does not give the owner control over every use of the words “happy” or “bowls” in other contexts. The prosecution history indicates that the mark was registered in 2017 but was cancelled in 2024 for failure to file a Section 8 declaration; no opposition or court actions appear, so the supplied history shows no enforcement activity. The latest meaningful event is the cancellation on April 26, 2024. For someone considering a similar name, the cancelled status means the mark no longer protects those goods, but the earlier registration still signals that the owner once claimed rights in those specific products.
