`CONSENT MOTION TO SUSPEND
`
`Opposer, Apple Inc., moves the Board under 37 C.F.R. §2.117(c) and T.B.M.P.
`

`
`between the parties. Since the filing of Opposer’s notice of opposition, the parties have been
`
`engaged in ongoing settlement negotiations. In light of the parties’ continuing settlement
`
`discussions, Opposer respectfully requests that the Board grant its motion to suspend the
`
`proceeding for an additional 90 days.
`
`On December 6, 2010, counsel for Applicant, Frank Benjamin, consented to this motion
`
`by email.
