`
`STIPULATED MOTION TO CONSOLIDATE PROCEEDINGS
`AND TO EXTEND TRIAL CALENDAR FOR SETTLEMENT DISCUSSIONS
`
`Pursuant to Fed. R. Civ. P. 42(a) and T.B.M.P. 511, Opposer Johnson & Johnson and
`
`Applicant Dermal Life LLC hereby stipulate to consolidation of pending Opposition No.
`
`91/205350 with pending Opposition No. 91/205184. In support of this Motion, the parties state as
`
`follows:
`
`1.
`
`Opposer has
`
`filed Opposition No. 91/205350 to Ser. No.
`
`85/401851 —
`
`HEALIXADERM for “Anti—inflammatory ointments; Medicated lotions for face and body;
`
`Medicated skin preparation for use in treating sunburns, facial wrinkles, dry skin, burns, rashes
`
`and wounds; Medicated sun block; Medicated sun care preparations; Medicated sun screen;
`
`Pharmaceutical preparations for wounds; Pharmaceutical skin lotions” in Class 5 (the “350
`
`Opposition”) and Opposition No. 91/205184 to Ser. No. 85/401846 — HEALIXADERM for After
`
`sun creams; After—sun lotions; Cosmetic creams for skin care; Cosmetic nourishing creams;
`
`Cosmetic preparations against sunburn; Facial creams; Moisturizing preparations for the skin;
`
`Non-medicated ointments for the prevention and treatment of sunburn; Non-medicated skin care
`
`preparations, namely, creams,
`
`lotions, gels, ointments and liquids” in Class 3 (the “l84
`
`Opposition”).
`
`
`
`2.
`
`In both the ‘350 Opposition and the ‘l84 Opposition, Opposer has asserted the
`
`identical claim that the HEALIXADERM mark is likely to cause confusion with Opposer’s prior-
`
`filed HELIDERM mark. In both proceedings, Applicant has asserted the same affirmative defense.
`
`4.
`
`5.
`
`The parties are identical in both proceedings.
`
`The marks are identical in both proceedings, except that in the ‘350 Opposition,
`
`Applicant’s goods are in Class 5 and in the ‘I84 Opposition Applicant’s goods are in Class 3.
`
`6.
`
`8.
`
`Both opposition proceedings involve common questions of law and fact.
`
`Consolidation of the ‘350 Opposition and the ‘l84 Opposition serves the interests of
`
`judicial economy by avoiding duplication of effort and decreases the administrative burden upon the
`
`Board in administering and disposing of the two proceedings individually. Moreover, consolidation
`
`does not inconvenience or prejudice either party.
`
`WHEREFORE, the parties respectfully stipulate that the proceedings be consolidated for
`
`all purposes. The parties further request that the Board reset the close of discovery and trial dates as
`
`set forth in the ‘I84 proceeding, and that the Board extend such dates thirty (30) days so that the
`
`parties may continue their settlement negotiations. Opposer notes that its last-filed suspension
`
`request in the ‘184 Opposition was in error caused by a docketing mistake on Opposer’s end.
`
`Accordingly, the parties request that the consolidated proceeding adopt the following calendar, as
`
`extended 30-days, from the stipulated extension filed and granted in the ‘l84 Opposition on May
`
`23, 2013:
`
`Discovery Closes : 07/22/2013
`
`Plaintiffs Pretrial Disclosures : 09/05/2013
`
`Plaintiffs 30-day Trial Period Ends : 10/20/2013
`
`Defendant's Pretrial Disclosures : ll/4/2013
`
`
`
`Defendant's 30-day Trial Period Ends 2 12/19/2013
`
`Plaintiffs Rebuttal Disclosures : 1/03/2014
`
`Plaintiffs 15-day Rebuttal Period Ends 2 02/02/2014
`
`Respectfully submitted,

`JOHNSON & JOHNSON
