`
`Defendant’s motion to suspend with consent filed December
`
`12, 2001, is noted.
`
`Because the parties are negotiating for a
`
`possible settlement of this case, proceedings herein are
`
`suspended until six months from the mailing date of this
`
`action, subject to the right of either party to request
`
`resumption at any time.
`
`See Trademark Rule 2.117(c).
`
`In the event that there is no word from either party
`
`concerning the progress of their negotiations within the next
`
`six months, the Board will issue an order resuming proceedings
`
`and resetting the time for applicant to file an answer or
`
`other response to the notice of opposition.
`
`If, during the suspension period, either of the parties
`
`or their attorneys should have a change of address, the Board
`
`should be so informed.
