What this record means
The record shows that the mark “SOCK IT TO YOU” is dead, having been abandoned because the owner, DID, INC., did not file a Statement of Use or an Extension Request after receiving a Notice of Allowance. The mark was registered on the Principal Register for the single class 008, covering personal defense key chain batons. Because the goods are limited to that specific type of defensive tool, a similar name used for unrelated products—such as apparel, electronics, or food—would be a farther concern, while a name used for other personal defense items would raise a closer issue. The abandonment means the owner no longer holds enforceable rights, and the supplied history shows no opposition, cancellation, or court action. The last meaningful event was the abandonment notice on August 9, 2021. For someone looking at a similar name, the risk is limited to the narrow category of personal defense key chain batons, and no broader control exists.
