`
`Jyll S. Taylor, Attorney:
`
`On September 9, 2002, the Board granted counsel’s request
`
`to withdraw as attorney of record for applicant and allowed
`
`applicant time to appoint a new attorney or file a paper
`
`stating that applicant wishes to represent itself in this
`
`proceeding.
`
`However, it has come to the attention of the Board through
`
`a telephone conversation with applicant’s bankruptcy trustee,
`
`Mr. Robert Yaquinto, that the bankruptcy case which occasioned
`
`the suspension of this proceeding is still pending, and that
`
`the law firm of Sidley and Austin will act as a correspondent
`
`for applicant to receive all filings associated therewith.1
`
`Accordingly, inasmuch as the bankruptcy proceeding is
`
`ongoing and because the ownership of the involved application
`
`
`1 Applicant, or its bankruptcy trustee, should within 60 days of the mailing date of this order file a change
`of correspondence address verifying applicant’s correspondent in these proceedings. Otherwise, and until
`
`
`
`Opposition No. 91124081
`
`does not appear to be resolved, the Board’s September 9, 2002
`
`order is modified to the extent that proceedings remain
`
`suspended pending final determination of the bankruptcy action
`
`and, if and when proceedings are resumed, applicant and/or its
`
`counsel will be given an opportunity to make an appearance in
`
`this matter.
`
`See Section 362 of the United States Bankruptcy
`
`Code, 11 U.S.C. § 362.
`
`Within twenty days after such final determination, the
`
`interested party should call up this proceeding for appropriate
`
`action.
`
`During the suspension period the Board should be
`
`notified of any address changes for the parties or their
`
`attorneys.
`
`
`
`
`
`
`applicant appoints new counsel in this matter, correspondence will be forwarded to applicant at its last-
`known address of record.
