What this record means

The record shows the application for “JAMES CITY N.C. EST. 1863 A BLACK COMMUNITY” is dead; it was abandoned on April 10 2024 after the applicant failed to respond to an Office action, and the owner listed is Nicholas Todd Gavin, an individual. The only goods covered are “Retail store services featuring virtual goods, namely, t‑shirts; hats; jackets; pants; shoes; underwear; socks for use in online virtual worlds” in International Class 035, so a similar name used for virtual‑world apparel would be the closest area of concern. The record does not give the owner control over all uses of the wording in other contexts. No Supplemental Register filing appears, and the prosecution history simply reflects the abandonment notices and a brief revival attempt that was not completed. The latest meaningful event is the abandonment notice on April 10 2024, and the supplied history shows no enforcement actions. I'd treat this as a modest concern if you plan to market virtual‑world clothing under a comparable name.
