`IN THE UNITED STATES PATENT AND TRADEMARK OFFICE

`BEFORE THE TRADEMARK TRIAL AND APPEAL BOARD

`
`(Delaware Corporation)
`Opposer,
`
`Vs.
`
`Opposition No: 91170256
`
`GOOGLE, INC.,
`
`Applicant.
`
`MOTION TO STRIKE REPLY BRIEF AND/OR DECLARATION OF
`
`ROSE HAGAN WHICH WAS NOT PROPERLY MADE OF RECORD
`
`AND UNTIMELY SUBMITTED IN THE SAID REPLY AND
`
`CANNOT BE CONTROVERTED BY THE OPPOSERE AT THIS
`
`STAGE
`
`NOW COMES the Opposer and moves the Board to Strike Applicant’s reply in
`
`further support of its combined motion for protective order re opposer’s service and
`
`preliminary response to opposer’s motion to consolidate. Opposer states as follows:
`
`Reply briefs may be considered by this Board pursuant to the discretion of the Board
`
`under trademark Rule 2. l27(a). Opposer states that it would be an abuse of the Board
`
`discretion to consider Applicant’s under the circumstances at bar for the following
`
`reasons:
`
`Opposer asserts that Applicant’s reference to the newly submitted affidavit is untimely.
`
`See generally Rule 2. l42(d) for the proposition that “the board will ordinarily not
`
`consider additional evidence filed with the Board. . .after the appeal is filed.” Likewise,
`
`the Board should not in this case consider the alleged new evidence consisting of an
`
`

`
`affidavit of Rose Hagan in applicant’s reply brief. There is no reference made in
`
`Applicant’s said reply brief, that the Rose Hagan was unable to supply her affidavit with
`
`the Applicant’s initial Motion. The newly provided affidavit of Rose Hagan prejudices
`
`the Opposer. The Rose Hagan affidavit should be considered untimely and was not
`
`properly made of record, having been submitted in a reply brief. A party cannot introduce
`
`previously undisclosed evidence in a reply. Applicant is attempting to introduce evidence
`
`that cannot be controverted by the opposer at this stage. Applicant presented no valid
`
`valid evidence in support of Applicant’s combined motion for protective order Re:
`
`opposer’s service and preliminary response to opposer’s motion to consolidate.
`
`Applicant presented only an ineffectual affidavit of Michael Zeller an attorney, who
`
`entered the case on May 3, 2006 and had no direct knowledge of the alleged mailing
`
`incident that the Applicant was complaining of. The Opposer responded to the said
`
`motion accordingly. Now, after the fact the Applicant is attempting to introduce in”reply”
`
`new evidence, the affidavit of Rose Hagan, which cannot be controverted by the opposer
`
`at this stage, which is prejudicial to the Opposer.
`
`WHEREFORE, the opposer prays that the Board strike Applicant’s said Reply in its
`
`entirety and/or strike the untirnely—filed affidavit of Rose Hagan.
`
`RESPECTFULLY SUBMITTED,
