`
`Sirs:
`
`The proposed amendment filed by applicant on November 20,
`2001 is noted.
`(A copy is enclosed for potential opposer).
`
`The amendment requires consideration by the Trademark
`Examining Attorney in charge of this case.
`Accordingly, the
`application file is being forwarded to the Examining
`Attorney for consideration of the proposed amendment.
`
`Pursuant to a request for extension of time to oppose
`granted January 31, 2002, the potential opposer herein,
`Apple Computer, Inc., has been allowed until 3/24/02 in
`which to file an opposition to this application. Inasmuch
`as the filing of the amendment occurred prior to the
`expiration of potential opposer's extension of time to
`oppose, the filing of the amendment served to suspend the
`running of the extension period.
`
`After the Examining Attorney has acted on the amendment,
`either by approving it for entry or by telephoning the
`applicant, explaining why the amendment cannot be approved,
`and placing a record of the telephone call in the file, the
`application should be returned (through the Photocomp
`Coordinator at the Publication and Issue Section) to the
`Board; proceedings with respect to the potential opposition
`will be resumed; and further appropriate action will be
`taken with respect thereto.
