What this record means
The record shows the application for the single‑letter mark “V” is dead – it was abandoned on June 1 2026 because the owner never filed a required Statement of Use after the Notice of Allowance, and the USPTO issued an abandonment notice that same day; the owner listed is California Dairies, Inc., an agricultural cooperative in California. The only goods covered are dairy milks and related cream products in class 29, so a similar name used for milk, flavored milk, half‑and‑half, heavy whipping cream or other dairy items would raise the closest record‑based concern, while uses in unrelated categories would be farther from this filing’s scope. The record does not give the owner control over every possible use of the letter “V.” This was a principal‑register application, not a Supplemental Register filing, and the prosecution history shows only the usual steps toward allowance and the later extensions of time to file a Statement of Use before the final abandonment. No oppositions, cancellations or court actions appear in the supplied history. I'd treat this as a meaningful concern if you plan to market dairy products under a similar name.
