APPLE

What this record means

The record shows that the mark “APPLE” is dead and was abandoned after a decision by the Trademark Trial and Appeal Board. The owner listed is Modernica, Inc., a corporation organized in California. The mark was registered on the Principal Register for class 011 goods, specifically electric lamps, lamp shades, and lamps, with first use on December 31 2001. Because the mark is no longer active, it does not give the owner control over the word “APPLE” in all contexts, but it does establish a prior claim to that wording for those lamp‑related goods. The record contains no evidence of opposition, cancellation, or other enforcement activity, so the supplied history shows none. The last meaningful event was the abandonment on December 21 2016. If you are thinking of using a similar name for lamp products, this history suggests a close concern; for other goods or services the risk is farther from the specific scope shown.
