`
`ELIZABETH J. WINTER, INTERLOCUTORY ATTORNEY:
`
`Opposer’s consented motion (filed August 24, 2011) to
`
`
`
`further suspend this consolidated proceeding for sixty days
`
`and to reset remaining trial dates, including the close of
`
`discovery, is granted for the reasons set forth herein. See
`
`Trademark Rule 2.127(a); TBMP § 605.02 (3d ed. 2011).
`
`
`
`Because the opposer has shown good cause for continued
`
`suspension by explaining that a verbal agreement has been
`
`reached between the parties and that a draft written
`
`agreement is being prepared, proceedings herein are
`
`SUSPENDED through October 28, 2011, subject to the right of
`
`either party to request resumption at any time. See
`
`Trademark Rule 2.117(c).
`
`
`
`The parties are reminded that there is a continuing
`
`obligation to provide good cause in the form of detailed
`
`
`
`Opposition Nos. 91184464 and 91184465
`
`progress reports for any further extension or suspension
`
`request. To clarify, a showing of good cause must comprise a
`
`detailed status report regarding the progress of the parties’
`
`settlement negotiations, including when the last settlement
`
`proposal was sent, by whom, and when a response is expected, a
`
`recitation of the issues that have been resolved since the
`
`commencement of this proceeding, a list of issues that remain to
`
`be resolved, and a timetable for resolution. Confidential
`
`information may be so designated and will be barred from public
`
`viewing.
`
`
`
`In the event that there is no word from either party
`
`concerning the progress of their negotiations, upon
`
`conclusion of the suspension period, proceedings shall
`
`resume on October 29, 2011 without further notice or order
`
`from the Board, upon the schedule set out in opposer’s
`
`motion, which is set out below, for the parties’
`
`convenience.

`
`In each instance, a copy of the transcript of
`
`testimony, together with copies of documentary exhibits,
`
`must be served on the adverse party within thirty days after
`
`completion of the taking of testimony. Trademark Rule
`
`2.l25.
`
`Briefs shall be filed in accordance with Trademark
`
`Rules 2.128(a) and (b). An oral hearing will be set only
`
`upon request filed as provided by Trademark Rule 2.l29.
`
`If, during the suspension period, either of the parties
`
`or their attorneys should have a change of address, the
`
`Board should be so informed.
