`
`REQUEST FOR A FURTHER SIXTY (60) DAY EXTENSION OF TIME FOR
`FILING OF APPLICANT’S APPEAL BRIEF IN PART BASED UPON
`FURTHER EFFORTS TO RESOLVE WITH THE EXAMINER AN ACCEPTABLE
`RESOLUTION OF THE MATTER AND TO PERMIT TIME FOR THE
`FURTHER RECEIPT OF INSTRUCTIONS FROM THE CLIENT
`
`The Applicant by and through its legal counsel, Burton S.
`
`Ehrlich of Ladas & Parry LLP, hereby requests a further sixty
`
`(60) day extension for the filing of the Applicant’s brief to
`
`allow for the Applicant to potentially moot the need for this
`
`appeal by fully resolving this matter at the Examiner level and
`
`for additional time for consulting with the client for the
`
`Applicant. In support of this Motion the Applicant submits as
`
`follows:
`
`
`
`The Applicant previously requested reconsideration of the
`
`rejection of registrability in a paper filed with the Trademark
`
`Attorney Examiner. When the request for reconsideration was denied
`
`the Board subsequently set the briefing schedule of sixty (60) days
`
`for the filing of the Applicant’s brief and the Applicant is now
`
`seeking a further extension of the presently set due date.
`
`
`
`
`- 1 -
`
`

`

`
`
`The Applicant’s counsel believes that there still may be a
`
`basis for resolving this matter with an amendment or submissions at
`
`the Examiner level. The Applicant is in the process of seeking
`
`further instructions and clarifications from his client on pursuing
`
`a potential follow-up action and communication, so as to seek to
`
`resolve this matter at the Examiner level and by consultations with
`
`the Examiner. Based upon the current understanding of the
`
`situation it is believed that a possible reasonable and acceptable
`
`resolution may exist to resolve issues in this application. In
`
`part, additional time is needed for the consideration of such a
`
`resolution, which if resolved in this manner could moot the appeal.
`
` The additional time would include time for consulting with the
`
`client and with the Examiner in seeking a potential resolution.
`
`
`
`Furthermore, additional time would also be necessary for
`
`consulting with the principals for the client on the potential
`
`appeal brief, should that become necessary.
`
`
`
`Furthermore, this revised briefing schedule will also
`
`accommodate the busy schedule of the Applicant’s counsel and
`
`his principals for the client. During the time period
`
`Applicant’s counsel has been heavily involved in District Court
`
`proceedings including a patent infringement case involving a
`
`multitude of foreign based Defendants, TTAB adversarial
`
`matters, and other matters with time sensitive deadlines
`
`involving both foreign and domestic intellectual property law
`
`
`
`
`- 2 -
`
`

`

`related matters for a number of clients. This extension will
`
`allow for counsel to consult and prepare any necessary papers.
`
`Based upon the foregoing, it is respectfully requested
`
`that the due date for the brief be reset for sixty (60) days
`
`with the Applicant’s brief under this extension becoming due on
`
`September 10, 2019.
