`
`Dear Sir or Madam:
`
`On behalf of Rosdebor International, Inc. of Philadelphia, PA, we request
`
`that further proceedings in this matter be suspended pending the termination of the civil
`
`
`action Filed in the Eastern District of Pennsylvania styled Bond Jewelers Inc. v.
`
`Rosdebor International, Inc., et al., Civil Action No. 03-3502, (USDC ED PA).
`
`Applicant is plaintiff in the above litigation in which the mark that is
`
`subject to this application has been asserted against the potential Opposer. A copy of the
`
`Complaint filed in the above action is attached as Exhibit 1.
`
`In answer to the Complaint,
`
`potential Opposer has asserted that the claimed mark is invalid as being generic and has
`
`filed a Motion for Summary Judgment which is now pending before the Court.
`
`

`
`
`
`As the above litigation is likely to have a significant bearing on the
`
`registrability of the claimed mark, potential Opposer requests that opposition proceedings
`
`be suspended pending the outcome of the litigation.
`
`Respectfully submitted,
`
