What this record means
The record shows that the mark “MADMATTER” is dead, having been abandoned because the owner, Matthew Troy Cook, did not file a Statement of Use or an Extension Request after the Notice of Allowance was issued. The mark was filed on January 17, 2019 and was published for opposition on May 28, 2019, with a Notice of Allowance dated July 23, 2019. The goods listed are audio and video recordings featuring music and artistic performances under class 009. A similar name would raise the closest concern for use in that specific category of recorded music or performance media. The record does not give the owner control over every use of the wording in other contexts. No enforcement activity—such as oppositions, cancellations, or court actions—is recorded. The latest event is the abandonment notice on February 24, 2020. For someone considering a similar name, the abandoned status reduces the risk of conflict, but the specific goods listed still represent a potential concern if used in the same field.
