SPORTYCATS

What this record means

The record shows that SPORTYCATS is an abandoned application, filed by individual Heather B Workman on Dec 18 2016 and marked “dead” after an abandonment notice was mailed on Oct 16 2017 because the applicant failed to respond to an Office action; that is the most recent status event. The only goods listed are women’s clothing—specifically shirts, dresses, skirts and blouses—so a similar name used for apparel in that category would raise the closest record‑based concern. The record does not give the owner control over the word “sportycats” in other product areas or for unrelated services. Because the application never reached registration, there is no Supplemental Register entry or related examination sequence to note. The prosecution history contains no oppositions, cancellations or court actions, so the supplied history shows no enforcement activity. I’d treat this as a modest concern if you plan to brand women’s clothing with a similar name.
