What this record means
The record shows that the application for TOAD JA! was filed by Russell Melchor as an individual on January 16, 2025, but it was abandoned on October 11, 2025 after the applicant failed to respond to an Office action, so the mark is not live or registered. The only goods listed are “Hats; Shirts” in International Class 025, which means a similar name would raise the closest record‑based concern for clothing items of that type. The record does not give the owner any control over every possible use of the words “TOAD JA!” in other categories or contexts. There is no Supplemental Register entry, and the prosecution history simply reflects the non‑final action and the subsequent abandonment. The latest meaningful event is the abandonment notice on October 11, 2025, and the supplied history shows no oppositions, cancellations or other enforcement activity. I'd treat this as a moderate concern if you plan to brand clothing similar to hats or shirts under a comparable name.
