What this record means
The record shows that “DEAR OWNER” was registered on the Principal Register on January 5, 2016, but the registration was cancelled on July 15, 2022 because the owner, Knockity LLC, failed to file a Section 8 declaration. The mark covered services in class 035, specifically operating online marketplaces for sellers and buyers of goods and/or services. A similar name would raise the closest concern in that same online marketplace context, but the record does not give the owner control over every use of the wording. The prosecution history shows a straightforward registration with no descriptiveness refusal or Supplemental Register movement. The latest meaningful event is the cancellation in 2022. No oppositions, extensions, or court actions appear in the supplied history. For someone considering a similar name, the cancelled status means the mark is no longer enforceable, but the goods and services listed still represent a potential area of concern if the name is used in a comparable online marketplace setting.
