What this record means
The record shows that the mark YELLOW was filed by Michael Rafidi as a service mark on March 21, 2023, but it is now dead because the applicant failed to respond to an Office action, with abandonment noted on April 4, 2024. The only goods and services listed are “Restaurant and café services” in International Class 043, so a similar name used for food‑service or hospitality offerings would be the closest area of concern. The record does not give the owner control over every use of the word “yellow” in other industries or contexts. Because the application was on the Principal Register and never moved to the Supplemental Register, there is no supplemental‑register sequence to interpret. The latest meaningful event is the abandonment notice on April 4, 2024, and the supplied history shows no oppositions, cancellations or other enforcement activity. I'd treat this as a modest concern if you plan a restaurant‑related brand with the same name.
