AFTON ADDERS
Dead · Refused DEAD/APPLICATION/Refused/Dismissed or Invalidated
What this record means
The record shows that “AFTON ADDERS” is an abandoned application, filed by Deanne Dietz on September 25 2025 and marked dead on June 9 2026 after the applicant failed to respond to an Office action; there is no active registration. The filing covered three classes: Class 025 for clothing such as hoodies, sweatshirts, t‑shirts, hats, shoes, socks and athletic apparel; Class 035 for promotional services that include launch‑party events and an online retail store selling tote bags, gym bags, backpacks, clothing, buttons, mugs, tumblers, water bottles, calendars, ornaments, wall hangings, blankets, notebooks and stuffed animals; and Class 041 for publishing e‑books and printed books in romance and historical fiction. A similar name used in any of those goods or services would be the closest area of concern, but the record does not give the owner control over all other uses of the words “Afton” or “Adders.” The latest meaningful event is the abandonment notice emailed on June 9 2026, and the prosecution history shows no oppositions, cancellations or court actions, so the supplied history shows no enforcement activity. I'd treat this as a moderate concern if you plan to market clothing, promotional merchandise or romance‑fiction publishing under a comparable name.
