What this record means
The record shows that the mark “TESLA” is dead, having been abandoned because the applicant failed to respond to an Office action. The owner listed is Adventure Brands, a limited partnership organized in North Carolina. The only goods listed are lanyards for holding magnetic identity cards, a very narrow category of electrical and scientific apparatus. Because the mark is no longer active, it does not give the owner control over every use of the word “TESLA.” The prosecution history shows a typical sequence of an intent‑to‑use application that was never completed; no opposition or enforcement actions appear in the supplied history. The latest meaningful event is the abandonment notice on March 11, 2026. For someone considering a similar name, the closest concern would be in the specific niche of magnetic card lanyards, but the record suggests that broader uses of the word are not presently protected by this particular filing.
