OH MY POD

What this record means

The record shows that the mark “OH MY POD” is dead and was abandoned by the owner, SMILE BEVERAGE WERKS, LLC, a Connecticut limited liability company, after the applicant failed to respond to an Office action. The mark was filed on January 21, 2021 on the Principal Register under class 030 for coffee. Because the mark is no longer active, it does not give the owner control over the wording in all contexts, but the abandoned filing still indicates that the owner considered the name relevant to coffee products. The prosecution history shows a final refusal in February 2022 and subsequent abandonment in September 2022, with no enforcement actions recorded. The latest meaningful event is the abandonment notice on September 2, 2022. For someone looking to use a similar name, the closest concern would be in the coffee or related staple food market; outside that area the risk is lower, but the abandoned record still signals that the owner had some interest in the mark.
