JIO

What this record means

The record shows that the mark “JIO” is dead and was abandoned by Vitality Brands LLC, a limited liability company organized in New York, because the owner never filed a Statement of Use after the Notice of Allowance on November 23, 2021. The mark was registered on the Principal Register for class 005, covering dietary and nutritional supplements. A similar name would raise the closest concern in the same class, where the mark protects the specific wording “JIO” on those products. The record does not give the owner control over every use of the word, only over the goods listed. The prosecution history shows the mark was approved for publication and published for opposition, but no opposition or enforcement actions appear in the supplied documents. The last meaningful event was the abandonment notice on June 27, 2022. For someone considering a similar name, the abandoned status reduces the risk, but the mark’s prior registration in class 005 still signals a potential concern if the new use is in the same or a closely related category.
