What this record means
The record shows that the mark “PAPERMILL” was filed as a service mark by Cerkko, LLC, a limited liability company organized in New Mexico, on June 9, 2015. The application was abandoned on October 1, 2015 when the applicant filed an express abandonment. The mark was never registered and remains dead. The only goods or services listed were “Bar services” under class 043, so the closest concern would be a name used for bar or restaurant services. Because the mark was never granted, it does not give the owner control over the word in any other context. The prosecution history shows a brief examination period, a non‑final action, a voluntary amendment, and then an express abandonment, but no opposition or enforcement actions appear in the supplied history. For someone considering a similar name, the record suggests a limited, class‑specific concern that would likely not extend beyond bar or restaurant services.
