`
`The Board notes Applicant’s motion for judgment on the pleadings, filed on
`
`January 27, 2020.
`
`When a party timely files a potentially dispositive motion, the proceeding is
`
`suspended with respect to all matters not germane to the motion, and no party should
`
`file any submission which is not germane to the motion except as otherwise may be
`
`specified in a Board order. See Trademark Rule 2.127(d). Accordingly, as of the filing
`
`date of the motion to dismiss, proceedings are suspended pending disposition of the
`
`motion. Any submission filed during the pendency of this motion which is not
`
`germane thereto will be given no consideration. See Trademark Rule 2.127(d).
`
`The parties should note that the schedule for the discovery conference, initial
`
`disclosures and discovery is also suspended by this order and will be reset in the event
`
`that the Board resumes proceedings. TBMP § 401.01.

`
`The motion to dismiss will be decided in due course.
