`
`APPLICANT’S MOTION TO EXTEND
`
`APPLICANT’S DEADLINE FOR FILING ITS APPEAL BRIEF
`
`
`Applicant Notamvis Limited (“Applicant”) by and through its counsel, respectfully
`
`
`
`
`
`moves this Board to grant Applicant a further ninety (90) day extension of its deadline for filing
`
`its Appeal Brief in the above-referenced Ex Parte Appeal. Applicant filed its Notice of Appeal
`
`on December 11, 2018, and subsequently filed two requests for a ninety (90) day extension of its
`
`deadline for filing its Appeal Brief. By order dated May 28, 2019, this Board approved
`
`Applicant’s latest request for extension. Accordingly, Applicant is required to file its Appeal
`
`Brief on August 24, 2019, pursuant to Trademark Rule 2.142 (b)(1). Applicant requests that this
`
`deadline be extended for a further ninety (90) days, such that its Appeal Brief would be due on
`
`November 22, 2019.
`
`
`
`Applicant respectfully submits that it has good cause for seeking this further extension.
`
`Applicant remains in negotiations with Noevir Co., Ltd., the owner of U.S. Registration
`
`
`
`No. 4981464, which is the registration that was cited against Applicant’s mark as the basis for
`
`the Section 2(d) refusal. This Section 2(d) refusal forms the basis for this Ex Parte Appeal.
`
`Since the date that Applicant filed its second request for extension of its deadline to file its
`
`Appeal Brief, the parties have made progress towards reaching a consent agreement.
`
`Specifically, Applicant believes that the parties have reached agreement in principle
`
`regarding the primary terms of a consent agreement. Applicant’s counsel, the undersigned, has
`
`sent counsel for Noevir Co., Ltd., a draft Letter of Consent on July 31, 2019. Counsel for Noevir
`
`Co., Ltd. emailed the undersigned a preliminary response on August 1, 2019, stating that he
`
`would review the Letter of Consent with his client. Applicant is now waiting for Noevir Co.,
`
`Ltd.’s comments regarding the draft Letter of Consent. Applicant intends to use this ninety (90)
`
`day period to attempt to finalize the terms of the Letter of Consent between Applicant and
`
`Noevir Co., Ltd.
`
`In conclusion, Applicant respectfully requests that this Motion for a further ninety (90)
`
`day extension of Applicant’s deadline for filing its Appeal Brief be granted.
`
`Dated at Burlington, Vermont this 22nd day of August, 2019.
