What this record means
The record shows that the mark “JULIUS” is dead because the applicant, Taco Villa, Ltd., a limited partnership organized in Texas, failed to respond to an Office action and the application was abandoned on March 18 2026. The mark was filed on April 1 2025 on the Principal Register under class 043 for restaurant services. Because the mark is no longer active, it does not give the owner control over every use of the word “JULIUS.” The closest concern would arise if someone used the name for restaurant or hotel services, as that is the exact scope listed. The prosecution history shows a normal examination process with a non‑final action, an extension granted, and eventual abandonment; no supplemental register steps were involved. No enforcement actions, oppositions, or cancellations appear in the supplied history. For anyone thinking of a similar name, the abandoned status reduces the risk, but using “JULIUS” for restaurant services could still raise a concern because the original owner had a claim in that area.
