COHIBA
Live / Registered — Registered — cancellation pending (as of 03 Feb 1997)
What this means for you
Registered since 06 Jun 1995. The owner can stop confusingly similar uses in the classes it covers; it stays on the register as long as the owner keeps up the maintenance filings (next due by 06 Jun 2035: the §8 & §9 renewal). A petition to cancel it is pending before the Trademark Trial and Appeal Board, so it could still be cancelled; until then it stands.
