What this record means
The record shows that the application for “DRAGON BALL Z” filed by Amy J Sledge, an individual, is dead – it was abandoned on March 14 2024 after the applicant failed to respond to a non‑final Office action. The only goods listed are textile items such as bedsheets, draperies, duvets, blankets for household pets, cotton towels, kitchen towels, linen, shower curtains, slumber bags, tea towels, handkerchiefs, travelling rugs, turban towels and woollen blankets, all in International Class 024. A similar name used on comparable textile or home‑textile products would be the closest area of concern, because the record’s protection is limited to those specific items. The record does not give the owner control over the words “DRAGON BALL Z” in other categories, such as entertainment or apparel outside the listed goods. The latest meaningful event is the abandonment notice emailed on March 14 2024, and the prosecution history shows no oppositions, cancellations or court actions, so no enforcement activity is visible. I'd treat this as a meaningful concern if you plan a mark on similar home‑textile goods.
