ALMOST HEAVEN

What this record means

The record shows the mark ALMOST HEAVEN is dead; the application was refused and voided because it did not meet the minimum filing date requirements, and the USPTO marked it as “Application is void because it did not meet minimum filing date requirements. Serial number was assigned in error.” The owner listed is the West Virginia Department of Tourism, and the only goods and services covered are in International Class 035: “Convention and visitors bureau services, namely, promoting business and tourism in the West Virginia area; promoting tourism in the West Virginia area; promoting recreation and tourism in West Virginia.” A similar name used for tourism‑related promotion or visitor‑bureau activities in West Virginia would be the closest record‑based concern, while uses in unrelated fields would be farther from the scope shown. The record does not give the owner control over every use of the words “Almost Heaven” in any context. The latest meaningful event is the status change on March 10, 2025, when the application was officially refused. No oppositions, cancellations or court actions appear in the history, so the supplied record shows no visible enforcement activity. I'd treat this as a moderate concern if you plan a tourism‑related service in West Virginia, but the dead status means the mark is not currently enforceable.
