`
`OPPOSER’S MOTION FOR AN EXTENSION OF TIME TO
`
`SERVE TESTIMONY DEPOSITION PURSUANT TO 37 C.F.R.
`
`2.125
`
`INTRODUCTION
`
`Opposer Information Superbrand,
`
`Inc., pursuant
`
`to 37 C.F.R.
`
`§ 2.125, respectfully
`
`requests that it be given an extension of thirty (30) days to serve the testimony deposition and
`
`exhibits of Eric Park on Applicant Paula Begoun, and that the remaining testimony and briefing
`
`periods for the parties be extended by the same amount of time.
`
`BRIEF IN SUPPORT OF MOTION
`
`In support of its motion, Opposer states that it took Mr. Park’s testimony deposition on
`
`June 3, 2009. Counsel for Applicant attended the deposition. Opposer received for the first time
`
`the transcript of Mr. Park’s testimony deposition, together with exhibits, on July 6, 2009 from
`
`the court reporter, despite requests to deliver it sooner. Opposer still has to submit the deposition
`
`to Mr. Park for his review, correction and signature. The regulation applicable to the service of
`
`testimony depositions, 37 C.F.R. § 2.125, anticipates that such extensions will be occasionally
`
`necessary.
`
`In order to ameliorate the effect of the requested extension, and to allow Applicant to
`
`
`
`prepare for her testimony, Opposer has today sent by overnight delivery a copy of Mr. Park’s
`
`testimony deposition and exhibits to Applicant’s counsel.
`
`As of the date of filing this motion, Applicant has not requested relief pursuant to 37
`
`C.F.R. § 2.125. Moreover, Applicant has both moved for a suspension of this matter and filed a
`
`motion to strike Mr. Park’s testimony deposition. It is clear that Applicant is not relying on
`
`receiving Mr. Park’s testimony deposition and exhibits until after the Board’s resolution of its
`
`motion to strike.
`
`In short, Applicant will not be prejudiced by the extension sought by Opposer,
`
`both because 37 C.F.R. § 2.125 contemplates an extension of the time to serve a testimony
`
`deposition and exhibits, as well as an extension of time of the remaining testimony and briefing
`
`periods, and because it is clear that Applicant is not relying on receipt of the transcript of Mr.
`
`Park’s deposition and exhibits until after the Board rules on App1icant’s pending motion to
`
`strike.
`
`CONCLUSION
`
`Based on the foregoing, Opposer respectfully requests that the Board grant Opposer a
`
`thirty (30) day extension to serve the testimony deposition and exhibits of Eric Park on
`
`Applicant, and extend the remaining testimony and briefing periods for the same amount of time.
`
`This 8”‘ day of July, 2009.
