MISSY MEYER’S SNARKY MUSINGS ABOUT TRADEMARKS, COPYRIGHT, LICENSING, AND OTHER IP MATTERS!

Trademark Tuesday – New and Cancelled Marks in class 025 – 15 April 2025

Numbers for the week: Class 025 had 461 new registered text marks; 57 previously registered text marks were cancelled; and 144 applications were abandoned before they reached the finish line.

Note: The marks in part 1 are now fully registered and active! This list is compiled from the USPTO Trademark Search system. Some of these are legitimate brand names! I’ve included them on this list because those brand names are also words or phrases that may be used on the goods in question by crafters and makers.

The Premier Lacrosse League has 172 live marks, 113 of which are registered. These 3 join the ranks of the registered, with the rest of the teams’ logos coming shortly, I would presume. The New York team is the “New York Atlas,” which … I don’t get why it’s a bull?

PART 3: ABANDONED APPLICATIONS! 🎉

Here are the applications that were abandoned this week in class 025, with mark drawing code 4. The most likely cause was the applicant not submitting corrected, updated, or informative material by the USPTO’s deadline. Ding, dong, these witches are dead! 🪦
