STICK IT TO THE MAN

What this record means

The record shows that the mark “STICK IT TO THE MAN” is dead; it was abandoned because the owner, James Kopp, failed to file a Statement of Use or an Extension Request after the Notice of Allowance was issued. The mark was filed on April 30 2018 and was allowed on November 20 2018, but the abandonment notice was mailed and the abandonment was finalized on June 24 2019. The only goods listed are spirits and wine, so the closest area of concern would be any use of the name in connection with alcoholic beverages. The record does not give the mark any control over other goods or services. No enforcement actions, oppositions, or cancellations appear in the supplied history. The latest meaningful event is the abandonment on June 24 2019. For someone looking at a similar name, the risk is that the mark’s abandonment removes the specific legal protection, but the earlier allowance still indicates that the owner had a claim to the wording for spirits and wine.
