What this record means
The record shows that the mark “PATERNAL PRESENCE” is dead, having been abandoned because the applicant failed to respond to an Office action. The owner listed is McGowan, LeRonn, an individual. The mark was filed under the Principal Register for services in class 041, specifically entertainment services such as providing podcasts in the field of education, with first use in January 2022 and use in commerce by July 2022. A similar name would raise the closest concern in the same educational podcasting context; uses in unrelated fields would be farther from the scope shown. The abandonment event on March 17 2025 is the latest meaningful status change, and no enforcement actions or oppositions appear in the supplied history. For someone considering a similar name, the abandoned status means the mark no longer protects that wording, but the prior registration still signals that the owner once claimed rights in that specific service area.
