What this record means
The record shows that the application for “DETROIT IS DA TIOT” is dead – it was abandoned on July 26, 2024 after the applicant failed to respond to an Office action, and no registration was issued. The owner listed is Dhafir S. Abdur‑Rahmaan, an individual. The filing covered only Class 025 clothing, specifically items such as jeans, athletic apparel, shirts, jackets, footwear, hats, caps, denim, graphic T‑shirts and related garments. A similar name used on clothing would be the closest record‑based concern, while uses in unrelated fields fall farther from the scope shown in this record. Because the mark never reached registration, the record does not give the owner control over every use of the wording. The prosecution history shows a final refusal in November 2022, an amendment and a notice of allowance in 2023, but the later abandonment is the most recent meaningful event, and no opposition or cancellation actions appear in the supplied history. I'd treat this as a moderate concern if you plan to brand clothing with a comparable phrase.
