`
`argument (Paper No. 26 (Order Modifying Scheduling Order and Granting the

`
`Request for Oral Argument simply to ensure compliance with 37 C.F.R. § 42.70(a)
`
`and the Scheduling Order (Paper Nos. 11 and 26). The Board has scheduled oral
`
`hearing for 2:00 PM Eastern Time on October 28, 2015 and has allotted each side
`
`ninety (90) minutes to present argument. Paper No. 26. Petitioners do not request
