PERCY RAY

What this record means

The record shows that “PERCY RAY” is an abandoned application, filed on September 23 2015 by MEDEROS CIGARS LLC, a Florida limited‑liability company, and that the USPTO marked it dead on August 12 2016 after the applicant failed to respond to an Office action. The only goods listed are cigars in International Class 34, with a first use date of June 1 2015, so a similar name used for tobacco products would be the closest area of concern; uses in unrelated categories such as clothing or food would be farther from the scope shown here. Because the mark never reached registration, the record does not give the owner control over every use of the words “Percy Ray.” The prosecution history shows a non‑final office action in January 2016 and the subsequent abandonment notice in August 2016, but no later maintenance filings or enforcement actions appear in the file. I'd treat this as a moderate concern if you plan a cigar‑related brand, since the abandoned filing still signals that the owner once sought protection for that name in that market.
