MY

What this record means

The record shows that the mark “MY” is dead, having been abandoned because the applicant did not respond to an Office action. The owner listed is My Paint Stop LLC, a limited liability company organized in California. The mark was filed as a service mark on September 21, 2018, and covers advertising and business services for retail stores featuring home improvement and hardware products, class 035. A similar name would raise the closest concern in the same class, where the mark’s scope is limited to those retail and advertising services. The record does not give the owner control over every use of the word “MY.” The prosecution history shows a series of non‑final actions and a final abandonment notice in January 2020, with no subsequent maintenance or renewal events. No enforcement activity such as oppositions or cancellations appears in the supplied history. For someone considering a similar name, this history suggests a meaningful risk of conflict in the home‑improvement retail and advertising space.
