`
`CONSENT MOTION FOR EXTENSION OF DISCOVERY AND TESTIMONY PERIODS
`
`COMES NOW Applicant STEPHEN H. CAREY, by counsel, and with the
`
`consent of Opposer’s attorney, hereby moves that all proceedings in
`
`the above captioned opposition proceeding be extended for a period
`
`of two (2) months, as follows:
`
`THE PERIOD FOR DISCOVERY TO CLOSE
`
`April 27, 2003
`
`Testimony period for party in
`position of plaintiff to close
`(opening thirty days prior thereto)
`
`July 27, 2003
`
`Testimony period for party in
`position of defendant to close
`
`(opening thirty days prior thereto)
`
`Rebuttal testimony period to close
`(opening fifteen days prior thereto)
`
`September 27, 2003
`
`November 10, 2003.
`
`
`
`
`
`/
`
`This present request is made in order to allow both counsel/
`
`time to complete discovery, is made in good faith, and is not made
`
`for purposes of delay. Specifically, this present request result
`
`most directly from the following chain of events:
`
`
`
`
`
`

`
`
`
`1.
`
`On November 27, 2002 the TTAB issued an order approving
`
`February 27, 2003 as the discovery close date (noting that it would
`
`look with disfavor on future extension motions).
`
`2.
`
`Last evening, February 10, Applicant STEPHEN H. CAREY
`
`slipped and fell on a patch of ice and injured his back, as noted
`
`in the two pages copies herewith.
`
`He was scheduled to give a
`
`deposition in this opposition proceeding on Thursday, February 13,
`but will be unable to do so without great difficulty as his back
`
`injuries make it painful for him to sit up or move about. He does
`
`not know how long such injuries will
`
`last.
`
`Counsel
`
`for both
`
`parties have agreed to reschedule his deposition for a date late in
`
`March.
`
`3. Meanwhile, on January 14 and 15, 2003 Applicant's counsel
`
`was present in the offices of Opposer's counsel for a production of
`
`documents in this opposition proceeding, and was scheduled to take
`
`Opposer's deposition this coming February 21. This latter date is
`
`being rescheduled as well.
`
`4.
`
`The parties’
`
`respective‘ counsel anticipate that
`
`the
`
`extension presently being requested in this CONSENT MOTION FOR
`
`EXTENSION OF DISCOVERY AND TESTIMONY PERIODS will be the last one
`
`needed in this opposition proceeding.
`
`

`
`
`
`IN VIEW OF all of
`
`the above, Applicant makes
`
`the request
`
`herein that all proceedings in the above captioned opposition
`
`proceeding be extended for a period of two (2) months, as above set
`
`forth.
`
`Pursuant
`
`to Trademark Rule 2.121(d)
`
`this request
`
`is being
`
`submitted in triplicate.
`
`Respectfully requested,

`
`Dear Mr. Kubitz:
`
`Please notify RE/MAX’s attorney that they will have to reschedule the deposition dated
`February 13, 2003.
`
`Last night at around 6 p.rn._, I slipped on ice and fell down a set of porch stairs. I hit my
`back hard several times as I bounced down the stairs.
`
`As the attached document shows, I have suffered severe back trauma from this fall down
`the stairs last night. This has immobilized me for the near future with severe and
`constant pain. I am unable to move about without pain due to my lower back injuries.
`Unfortunately, the doctor was unable to let me know how long this will last.
`
`Sincerely,
`
`Stephen Carey
