FOOTNOTE

What this record means

The record shows that the mark “FOOTNOTE” is live and registered on the Principal Register under serial 90902080, owned by FUTURESTITCH INC., a Delaware corporation. The registration covers printed greeting cards in class 016, with first use in commerce on March 28, 2022. A similar name would raise the closest concern for use in the same or related paper goods and printed matter. The record does not give control over every use of the word “FOOTNOTE” in other industries or contexts. The prosecution history indicates a straightforward allowance and registration process with no descriptiveness refusal or Supplemental Register move. The most recent event is the registration confirmation on January 24, 2023; no maintenance or renewal dates are supplied. No oppositions, cancellations, or enforcement actions appear in the supplied history. For someone considering a similar name, the record suggests a meaningful risk of conflict for greeting card or related printed goods.
