What this record means
The record shows that the mark “TESLA” is dead and was abandoned by Tesla, Inc., a Delaware corporation, because the applicant failed to respond to an Office action. The mark was filed on June 26, 2023 and the abandonment was recorded on May 16, 2024. The only goods listed are beer under class 032, so the closest concern would arise if someone used the name “TESLA” for beer or related beverage products. The record does not give the mark control over any other uses of the word. The prosecution history shows a normal examination process with a non‑final action and an eventual abandonment; no supplemental register status is involved. No enforcement activity such as oppositions or cancellations appears in the supplied history. For a business considering a similar name, the abandonment suggests that the mark is no longer active, but the specific beer class still presents a potential concern for that product line.
