JUST BECAUSE

What this record means

The record shows that the mark JUST BECAUSE was filed by Howard Weller as an intent‑to‑use service mark on November 29, 2023, but it was abandoned on October 15, 2024 after the applicant failed to respond to a non‑final Office action, so the application is dead and there is no active registration. The only listed goods are charitable services—organizing volunteer programs and promoting public awareness of emergency‑assistance causes—under International Class 035, so a similar name used for those types of charitable activities would raise the closest record‑based concern. The record does not give Howard Weller control over every use of the words “JUST BECAUSE” in other fields. No supplemental‑register filing appears, and the prosecution history simply moves from data entry to examiner assignment, a non‑final action, and then abandonment. The latest meaningful event is the abandonment notice on October 15, 2024, and no enforcement actions are visible in the file. I'd treat this as a modest concern if you plan a charitable service under the same wording, but the risk is limited to that narrow area.
