`
`PETITIONER’S REPLY IN SUPPORT OF ITS MOTION TO COMPEL
`REGISTRANT’S INTERROGATORY RESPONSES AND DOCUMENT PRODUCTION
`
`Petitioner Hewlett Packard Enterprise Development LP (“HPED”) files this Reply in
`
`
`
`Support of Its Motion to Compel Registrant’s Interrogatory Responses and Document Production
`
`(the “Motion,” 7-8 TTABVUE) and respectfully shows as follows:
`
`I.
`
`INTRODUCTION
`
`Arroware’s Response in Opposition to Petitioner’s Motion to Compel Registrant’s
`
`Interrogatory Responses and Document Production (“Opposition Brief,” 9 TTABVUE) and
`
`concurrent supplementation of its interrogatory responses fail to remedy its discovery deficiencies
`
`or obviate HPED’s need for Board relief. Instead, Arroware attempts to deflect attention from its
`
`discovery shortcomings through untimely objections and a host of satellite issues. Once
`
`Arroware’s smokescreen is cast aside, its Opposition Brief and supplementation reflect that
`
`Arroware cannot or will not comply with its discovery obligations without Board intervention.
`
`Not only does Arroware fail to demonstrate that it meets all three prerequisites for invoking
`
`Rule 33(d), but the documents identified in its interrogatory supplementation fail to respond to
`
`HPED’s interrogatories in multiple instances. Furthermore, Arroware cannot have it both ways
`
`and declare that its document production is substantially complete but that no further production
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`is required. The meet-and-confer process precipitating this Motion reflects HPED’s exhaustive
`
`efforts to resolve Arroware’s discovery deficiencies short of Board intervention. In view of this
`
`record, Arroware’s suggestion that HPED “jumped the gun” in filing this Motion is absurd.1 (Opp.
`
`Br. at 3, 9 TTABVUE 4.)
`
`II. FACTUAL BACKGROUND
`
`Arroware has alleged baseless and irrelevant fraud allegations wholly unrelated to this
`
`proceeding at every turn, and its Opposition Brief is no different. (Opp. Br. at 5-7 & n.2, 9
`
`TTABVUE 6-8.) HPED has been reluctant to indulge Arroware by responding to its mudslinging,
`
`but out of an abundance of caution, HPED wishes to set the record straight.
`
`Hewlett Packard Development Company LP (“HPDC”), through its counsel James F.
`
`Struthers, renewed Registration No. 1312102 for the mark APOLLO in 2004 using screenshot
`
`specimens of the website <www.ap-sure.com/myapollo/support/1200_down.htm>. Arroware has
`
`mischaracterized this website as an “unaffiliated third party” site and repeatedly has alleged that
`
`“these materials were not being offered and hosted by Applicant at that time in 2005 [sic].” (See,
`
`e.g., Answer Ex. 1 ¶ 24, 4 TTABVUE 18-19.) However, the sworn affidavit of Arroware’s witness
`
`Harminder S. Dhani disclosed to HPED in the related Canadian proceedings avers that [
`
`Redacted
`
`
`
`
`
`.] (See Aff. of Harminder S. Dhani ¶ 13, Ex. 4, attached as Exhibit 16.2) A review of the
`
`
`1 By contrast, Arroware complains of certain discovery responses for the first time in its Opposition Brief,
`even though the time period between HPED’s responses and the filing of the Opposition Brief was merely
`two weeks without so much as a request to meet-and-confer. (Opp. Br. at 15, 9 TTABVUE 16.)
`
`2 Exhibits are numbered consecutively from HPED’s Motion. The propriety of certain disclosures by Dhani
`and the intended use of his affidavit by Arroware in the Canadian proceedings are currently in dispute, and
`therefore this evidence is filed under seal. Brackets reflect information redacted in the publicly available
`version of this Reply concurrently filed herewith. See TBMP § 502.02(e).

`INTERROGATORY RESPONSES AND DOCUMENT PRODUCTION

`
`
`
`same <archive.org> evidence relied upon by Arroware shows that HPDC’s related entities were
`
`offering printer drivers and related manuals through <www.ap-sure.com> pre- and post-renewal.
`
`This is not the only time that Arroware has mischaracterized documents to fit its false
`
`narrative. In support of its defenses of acquiescence and estoppel, which as equitable defenses are
`
`unavailable against abandonment claims and therefore completely irrelevant, Arroware asserts that
`
`HPED sought Arroware’s consent to register and use the APOLLO mark and “indicated . . . that
`
`Petitioner recognizes Registrant as a senior user with superior rights and that Petitioner has
`
`abandoned its prior rights in the APOLLO mark.” (Opp. Br. Ex. A at 30, 33, 9 TTABVUE 57,
`
`60.) Arroware omits that this consent request pertained to registration in Russia, which has no
`
`bearing on rights within the United States. Furthermore, nowhere in this consent request is any
`
`recognition of Arroware as “a senior user with superior rights” or any indication that HPED had
`
`abandoned its APOLLO mark. (See A0001297-98 attached as Exhibit 17.)
`
`Arroware also bases its meritless fraud allegations on the December 4, 2014, response to
`
`an office action for Serial No. 86296023, an application that has no bearing on this proceeding.
`
`(See e.g., Opp. Br. Ex. A at 23-24, 9 TTABVUE 50-51.) This response speaks for itself, and there
`
`is nothing incorrect or fraudulent about the arguments asserted therein, nor does it have any
`
`relevance to this proceeding. Not only do these unfounded allegations pertain to separate matters
`
`that have no bearing on this cancellation, but the allegations are all the more untoward since none
`
`of HPED’s actions have any relevance apart from substantiating its standing to file the petition for
`
`cancellation in December 2017. Arroware’s insistence on lobbing false and unfounded accusations
`
`speaks only to its inability to contest the merits of HPED’s abandonment claim and this Motion.
`
`III. ARGUMENT & AUTHORITIES
`
`As a threshold matter, HPED’s use of 12-point, double-spaced font for the body of its
`
`Motion and the inclusion of an optional table of contents demonstrates that its typography for its
`

`INTERROGATORY RESPONSES AND DOCUMENT PRODUCTION
`
`Page 3
`
`
`
`eight footnotes was no “subterfuge” to evade page limits, nor does the positioning or spacing of
`
`its signature and certificates violate the Board’s rules. See Moringa & Co. v. Crown Confectionery,
`
`Co., Opp. No. 91171726, 2011 WL 810192, at *3-4 (T.T.A.B. Feb. 17, 2011); see also 37 C.F.R.
`
`§ 2.127(a) (omitting signatures and certificates from the page limit components for motion briefs).
`
`A. Arroware’s Interrogatory Responses Remain Defective, and the Board Should
`Order Complete, Narrative Responses
`
`
`1. The Supplementation to Arroware’s Interrogatory Reponses Is Defective
`
`Arroware provides no explanation or authority for why it should be excused from meeting
`
`all three clear prerequisites for invoking Rule 33(d).3 (See Mot. at 11-13, 8 TTABVUE 12-14.)
`
`Arroware asserts without any support that “Arroware, as the producing party, has no inherent
`
`advantage in analyzing its specifically identified documents,” (Opp. Br. at 8, 9 TTABVUE 9),
`
`even though the Board has repeatedly held that the exact opposite is usually the case. (Mot. at 13,
`
`8 TTABVUE 14.) However, the Board need not weigh whether the burden is substantially the
`
`same for both parties since the first two prerequisites remain unmet. See Jain v. Rampart Inc., 49
`
`U.S.P.Q.2d 1429, 1434 (T.T.A.B. 1998). First, Arroware fails to quantify how responding with
`
`narrative answers would impose a significant burden. Second, Arroware has failed to identify
`
`documents that cogently respond to multiple interrogatories, as illustrated below.
`
`For instance, Arroware identifies a purported list of software users corresponding to Bates
`
`label A0002408 in its supplemental response to Interrogatory No. 15, which requests the
`
`identification of third-parties who Arroware has expressly allowed to use its mark within the
`
`United States. (Opp. Br. at 10, 9 TTABVUE 11.) Arroware then states the following:
`
`It is also not true that “[n]or has Arroware produced documents expressly
`permitting third-party use of its Mark responsive to Request for Production No.
`22.” Arroware produced its end user license agreement. (A[00]01427) Arroware
`
`
`3 Since Arroware supplemented Interrogatory No. 5 with a narrative response, HPED withdraws this
`interrogatory from the scope of its requested order.
`
`PETITIONER’S REPLY IN SUPPORT OF ITS MOTION TO COMPEL REGISTRANT’S
`INTERROGATORY RESPONSES AND DOCUMENT PRODUCTION
`
`Page 4
`
`
`
`has not located additional documents after a reasonable search.
`
`(Opp. Br. at 19, 9 TTABVUE 20.) However, the terms of the end user license agreement
`
`corresponding to Bates label A0001427 expressly state: “These terms do not grant you any rights
`
`to use MyApollo trademarks, logos, domain names, or other brand features.” (See A0001427
`
`attached as Exhibit 18.) In light of this disclaimer, apparently none of the users identified in
`
`A0002408 have express permission to use Arroware’s MY APOLLO mark, and Arroware has
`
`failed to meaningfully identify any documents responsive to Interrogatory No. 15.
`
`
`
`In addition, Arroware identifies purported advertising expenditure statements from 2013-
`
`2015 corresponding to Bates label A0001963-64 in response to Interrogatory No. 10, which
`
`requests the identification of aggregate U.S. advertising and promotion expenditures. (Opp. Br. at
`
`10, 9 TTABVUE 11.) However, certain line items in these documents reflect that they are Canada-
`
`specific expenditures, leaving HPED guessing as to which of the expenditures, if any, are specific
`
`to the United States. (See A0001963-64 attached as Exhibits 19-20.) “It is well settled that activity
`
`outside of the United States does not create rights in marks within the United States,” and therefore
`
`Arroware’s identified documents fail to meaningfully respond to the interrogatory. See Linville v.
`
`Rivard, 41 U.S.P.Q.2d 1731, 1736 (T.T.A.B. 1996). Arroware claims that all documents
`
`responsive to HPED’s Request for Production No. 11 (seeking aggregate U.S. advertising and
`
`promotion expenditures) have been produced, which underscores that a narrative response is
`
`required to distinguish expenditures for U.S. activities. (Opp. Br. at 20-21, 9 TTABVUE 21-22.)
`
`
`
`In response to Interrogatory No. 4 regarding Arroware’s purported plans to resume use of
`
`its mark in U.S. commerce, Arroware identifies among other documents an email whose substance
`
`appears to be completely redacted. (Opp. Br. at 9, 9 TTABVUE 10; see A0001602-03 attached as
`
`Exhibit 21.) HPED certainly cannot derive answers from redacted documentation.
`
`Finally, Arroware identifies a handful of documents in its supplementation to Interrogatory
`
`
`PETITIONER’S REPLY IN SUPPORT OF ITS MOTION TO COMPEL REGISTRANT’S
`INTERROGATORY RESPONSES AND DOCUMENT PRODUCTION
`
`Page 5
`
`
`
`No. 17, requesting that Arroware state all facts supporting its denial of Paragraph 4 of HPED’s
`
`Petition for Cancellation filed on December 8, 2017, which reads as follows: “Registrant is not
`
`using the Mark in commerce in connection with the Goods.” (Opp. Br. at 10, 9 TTABVUE 11.)
`
`Of these documents, only one pertains to time periods on or after the petition filing date of
`
`December 8, 2017. (See A0002502-05, A0006875-76, and A0002490-94 attached as Exhibits 22-
`
`27.4) Arroware’s failure to identify responsive documents even when under Board scrutiny
`
`demonstrates the necessity of traditional, narrative responses.
`
`Furthermore, Arroware’s inability to accurately interpret its own documents undermines its
`
`argument that it should be excused from providing narrative responses simply because it claims to
`
`have produced documents responsive to requests for production covering similar subject matter.
`
`(Opp. Br. at 13-15, 9 TTABVUE 14-16.) Interrogatories and document requests are
`
`complementary and not mutually exclusive, and Arroware’s failure to identify its own documents
`
`to provide responsive information underscores the importance of responding to interrogatories
`
`with sworn, narrative answers in addition to producing documents substantiating those responses.
`
`2. Arroware’s Untimely and Improper Objection to Purportedly Excessive
`Interrogatories Should Be Overruled
`
`Arroware attempts to justify an untimely and improper objection to purportedly excessive
`
`interrogatories through the unsupported contention that the procedure mandated by Trademark
`
`Rule 2.120(d) and TBMP § 405.03(e) “is just one way to handle them.” (Opp. Br. at 12, 9
`
`TTABVUE 13.) On the contrary, a party must follow the letter of Trademark Rule 2.120(d):
`
`This practice has been in place for over two decades and articulated in the TBMP
`for many years…[i]t could scarcely be made any clearer. When a party, in good
`faith, believes the interrogatories with which it has been served exceed the limit
`
`
`4 A0002408 purports to be a list of Arroware’s users showing no new users after early 2015. Due to volume,
`this document has been omitted from HPED’s supporting exhibits. A0002502-05 comprises screenshots
`of Arroware’s YouTube account showing that no new video content has been uploaded since 2013,
`evidencing no use in commerce on or after the filing date of the petition rather than the contrary.

`
`
`
`and the party is not willing to waive this basis for objection, the party shall, within
`the time for (and instead of) serving answers and specific objections, serve a
`general objection on the ground of their excessive number.
`
`Emilio Pucci Int’l BV v. Sachdev, 118 U.S.P.Q.2d 1383, 1385 (T.T.A.B. 2016) (emphases added);
`
`see also TBMP § 405.03(e) (requiring that a party “must” serve a general objection). HPED’s
`
`discovery requests are well within the maximum allowable number, but the Board need not assess
`
`subparts or weigh any claimed attendant burden since any such objection is waived when a party,
`
`as here, disregards Trademark Rule 2.120(d) and TBMP § 405.03(e). See, e.g., Magnet Records
`
`Ltd. v. Magnet Interactive Grp., Inc., Opp. No. 91104044, 2000 WL 381486, at *2 (T.T.A.B. April
`
`14, 2000) (“[A]pplicant did not serve a general objection on this basis, but rather served answers
`
`and specific objections. In such circumstances, applicant waived its right to object on this basis.”).
`
`B. “Substantially Complete” Production Is Not Complete Production, and the Board
`Should Compel Full Production Responsive to HPED’s Document Requests
`
`Arroware fails to quantify any claimed burden imposed by HPED’s document requests.
`
`Rather, it claims that it has few documents and that its production is “substantially complete.”
`
`(Opp. Br. at 15, 9 TTABVUE 16.) However, “substantially complete” is not complete. If
`
`Arroware truly has so few documents, then it should pose no issue to simply produce them and to
`
`amend its responses to confirm that no additional responsive documents have been identified.
`
`Furthermore, Arroware’s thin explanations of its conspicuously sparse documentation from
`
`2015-2018 reinforce the need for full production. Arroware’s user activity log reflects no activity
`
`after early 2015, its index of frequency of use shows no use after early 2015, and the Kinsman
`
`Affidavit reflects that Arroware was not adding new users starting in 2015. (See Opp. Br. at 16, 9
`
`TTABVUE 17; Mot. Ex. 14 ¶ 28, 7 TTABVUE 233.) In this context, Arroware’s denial of any
`
`cessation and its explanations for the holes in its documentation are highly suspect:
`
`• “Just because Arroware did not collect this user information later does not mean
`that it stopped using the MY APOLLO mark.” (Opp. Br. at 16, 9 TTABVUE 17);
`
`
`PETITIONER’S REPLY IN SUPPORT OF ITS MOTION TO COMPEL REGISTRANT’S
`INTERROGATORY RESPONSES AND DOCUMENT PRODUCTION
`
`Page 7
`
`
`
`• “[J]ust because Arroware did not later collect extensive user information as it did
`initially, does not mean that it stopped using the MY APOLLO mark.” (Id. at 22
`n.9, 9 TTABVUE 23);
`
`• “Arroware did not collect the names, addresses, and contact information of its users,
`except for a brief period in 2013-14.” (Id. at 19, 9 TTABVUE 20); and
`
`•
`
` “[I]t is not surprising that substantial investments of capital is made by Arroware
`without extensive documentation.” (Id. at 22, 9 TTABVUE 23.)
`
`HPED should not be required to simply accept Arroware’s denial of nonuse and take its word that
`
`any unproduced documents are inconsequential. Such denials are like proclamations of intent to
`
`resume use of a mark, which “are awarded little, if any, weight.” Rivard v. Linville, 45 U.S.P.Q.2d
`
`1374, 1376 (Fed. Cir. 1998). The Board accordingly should require Arroware to complete its
`
`production of all documents responsive to the requests at issue in HPED’s Motion and amend its
`
`responses to confirm that no additional responsive documents have been identified.
`
`C. Arroware’s Unsupported Assertion of Per Se Rules Does Not Obviate This Motion
`
`Arroware contends without authority that the three-year period comprising the prima facie
`
`case for abandonment “was cut short by HPED’s filing of this cancellation proceeding on
`
`December 8, 2017,” and that the period following the filing of HPED’s petition “does not count
`
`toward abandonment as the registrant’s alleged non-use is excused by the need to defend the
`
`mark.” (Opp. Br. at 17, 9 TTABVUE 18.) But HPED is not required to establish the prima facie
`
`case to prove a case for abandonment. See 15 U.S.C. § 1127. Rather, the prima facie case is but
`
`one way of doing so. See Rivard, 45 U.S.P.Q.2d at 1376. Therefore Arroware’s assertion of a per
`
`se cutoff rule does not defeat HPED’s claim nor preclude this Motion. Regardless, such a per se
`
`rule has been squarely rejected by the Board. See U.S. Olympic Comm. v. Kayser-Roth Corp.,
`
`Canc. No. 92021648, 2004 WL 188196, at *6-7 (T.T.A.B. Jan. 23, 2004) (denying that any per se
`
`rule excluded the nonuse of a mark following commencement of a cancellation proceeding).
`
`Even if Arroware attempted to claim excusable nonuse after the filing of the petition for
`
`
`PETITIONER’S REPLY IN SUPPORT OF ITS MOTION TO COMPEL REGISTRANT’S
`INTERROGATORY RESPONSES AND DOCUMENT PRODUCTION
`
`Page 8
`
`
`
`cancellation in this proceeding—which it raises for the first time in its Opposition Brief—the
`
`veracity and merits of such claim are proper subjects for discovery. Indeed, the Board and its
`
`reviewing court have found the veracity of such claims and the credibility of supporting testimony
`
`wanting, which reflects that HPED is entitled to probe the basis for this new claim through
`
`discovery. See, e.g., Linville v. Rivard, 41 U.S.P.Q.2d 1731, 1740 (T.T.A.B. 1996), aff’d, 45
`
`U.S.P.Q.2d 1374, 1377 (Fed. Cir. 1998). Arroware’s self-serving double-talk in claiming intent
`
`to resume use of its mark but at the same time claiming that any nonuse is excused has in fact been
`
`found to undermine any excusable nonuse claim. See id. (finding the negotiation of licenses for
`
`the use of respondent’s mark after the filing of the petition for cancellation to belie claimed
`
`excusable nonuse).
`
`D. The Specter of a Dispositive Motion Does Not Obviate HPED’s Motion to Compel
`
`Arroware argues that this Motion is moot due to its intended “motion to dismiss or for
`
`summary judgment on collateral estoppel and other grounds.” (Opp. Br. at 5, 9 TTABVUE 6.)
`
`But all of Arroware’s affirmative defenses fail as a matter of law. “Where the ground for
`
`cancellation is abandonment, equitable defenses such as laches, bad faith and unclean hands, are
`
`not available in light of the overriding public interest in removing abandoned registrations from
`
`the register.” Amer. Vitamin Prods., Inc. v. Dowbrands, Inc., 22 U.S.P.Q.2d 1313, 1314 (T.T.A.B.
`
`1992). Furthermore, any issue attendant to the withdrawal of Serial No. 86296023, which forms
`
`the basis of Arroware’s collateral estoppel defense, “was not actually litigated before the Board,”
`
`and therefore “collateral estoppel does not apply.” Stoller v. Hyperstealth Biotech Corp., 131 Fed.
`
`Appx. 280, 283 (Fed. Cir. 2005). Arroware cites no authority to justify that a future dispositive
`
`motion should preclude a present motion to compel, and the Board should disregard this request.
`
`E. Case Deadlines Should Be Reset to Allow for Expert Designations
`
`Arroware is wrong in asserting that this proceeding has not been suspended and that any
`
`
`PETITIONER’S REPLY IN SUPPORT OF ITS MOTION TO COMPEL REGISTRANT’S
`INTERROGATORY RESPONSES AND DOCUMENT PRODUCTION
`
`Page 9
`
`
`
`expert deadline has passed. See 37 C.F.R. 2.120(f)(2); see also TBMP § 510.03(a) n.13 (citing
`
`Jain v. Ramparts Inc., 49 U.S.P.Q.2d 1429, 1430 (T.T.A.B. 1998) (proceedings deemed suspended
`
`as of the filing of the motion [to compel])) (emphasis added). Even if this proceeding was not
`
`suspended as of the filing of HPED’s Motion (which it was), HPED has presented good cause for
`
`resetting the expert disclosure deadline because any expert testimony will focus on, among other
`
`issues, Arroware’s nonuse and purported intent to resume use of its mark. HPED cannot designate
`
`experts and provide expert disclosures when Arroware has not yet fully produced the information
`
`and documents on which HPED’s experts would rely to reach their opinions.
`
`IV. CONCLUSION
`
`WHEREFORE, HPED respectfully requests that the Board grant its Motion and reset the
`
`schedule for this proceeding to allow for expert designations and further discovery.
