MINUS (M19)
Dead · Refused DEAD/APPLICATION/Refused/Dismissed or Invalidated
What this record means
The record shows that the mark “MINUS (M19)” is dead, having been abandoned because the applicant failed to respond to an Office action. The owner listed is A Rare Creation Limited, a company incorporated in Hong Kong. The mark was filed for a wide range of cosmetics and cleaning goods, including incense, mascara, perfumes, essential oils, bath soaps, body glitter, and related items. A similar name used for products or services in these same or closely related categories would raise the closest record‑based concern. This history does not give the owner control over every use of the wording, only over the specific goods listed. The prosecution history shows a normal examination sequence that ended with abandonment; no supplemental register status or enforcement actions appear. The last event was the abandonment notice on March 21, 2024. For someone considering a similar name, the abandoned status reduces the risk, but the extensive cosmetics coverage still suggests a meaningful concern if the new use is in that field.
