PAPERAPPLE

What this record means

The record shows that the “PAPERAPPLE” mark, owned by Paperapple, a Minnesota limited‑liability company, was abandoned on October 7 2022 after an inter partes decision by the TTAB, so it is not a live or pending registration. The abandoned application covered two classes: Class 016 for art prints, greeting cards and wrapping paper, and Class 042 for custom design of surface patterns, paper goods and graphic art based on customer selections. A similar name used on comparable paper‑based products or custom design services would be the closest area of concern, because those are the exact goods and services listed. The record does not give the owner control over every use of the words “paper” or “apple” in unrelated fields. No prosecution history is provided, and the supplied history contains no oppositions, cancellations or other enforcement actions. I'd treat this as a meaningful concern if you plan to market comparable paper‑goods or design services under a similar name.
