What this record means
The record shows that ROOTILLA is an abandoned application – it was never turned into a live registration – and the owner listed is Plant‑Smart, LLC, a limited‑liability company organized in Indiana. The filing covered only one class, 029 (Meats & Processed Foods), specifically “cheese substitutes,” so a similar name used for food products in that category would be the closest record‑based concern. The record does not give Plant‑Smart control over every possible use of the word ROOTILLA, especially outside the narrow food description shown. The prosecution history notes that a Notice of Allowance was issued on July 2 2019, but no Statement of Use was filed, leading to an abandonment notice and final abandonment on February 3 2020; no later maintenance or renewal dates appear. The supplied history contains no oppositions, cancellations or court actions, so there are no visible enforcement signals. I'd treat this as a modest concern if you plan to market cheese‑substitute products under a similar name.
