CINDERELLA MOUNTAIN

What this record means

The record shows that “CINDERELLA MOUNTAIN” is an abandoned application – the USPTO marked it dead on Oct 17 2022 after the owner, Dolly Parton, failed to file a required Statement of Use following the Notice of Allowance, and the abandonment notice was e‑mailed that same day. The filing was made on an intent‑to‑use basis in Apr 2019 and the goods listed are limited to clothing (class 025), specifically a long list of apparel such as tops, dresses, jackets, hats, footwear and related items. Because the record only covers those clothing items, a similar name used for, say, a restaurant or a software service would be farther from the scope shown here, though the wording itself is not cleared for unrestricted use. The mark was never placed on the Supplemental Register; it remained on the Principal Register until abandonment. The prosecution history shows a series of extensions for the Statement of Use before the final abandonment, and the supplied history contains no opposition, cancellation or other enforcement actions. I'd treat this as a meaningful concern if you plan to brand clothing under a comparable name, since the abandoned filing still signals that the USPTO examined the mark for that category.
