These documents include printouts from the Federal Communications Commission’s (“FCC”) Form 499 Filer Database that can be obtained through the Internet as publicly available documents. This evidence is relevant to rebut arguments developed by Applicants Mr. Thomann and Dormitus Brands LLC (“Applicants”) during their cross-examination of Opposer’s expert witness David H. Solomon (TTABVUE 149-150), in particular their cross-examination of Mr. Solomon’s reliance on the Form 499 Filer Database to reach his conclusion that the FCC would likely assume complaints against “Cingular” branded products or services were related to an AT&T entity (see TTABVUE 94, ⁋ 7). This evidence also supports the arguments of Opposer that it has a real interest in the outcome of this proceeding pursuant to Ritchie v. Simpson, 170 F.3d 1092, 1095, 50 USPQ2d 1023, 1025 (Fed. Cir. 1999) by demonstrating, among other issues, that the FCC associates the Cingular name with AT&T. Opp. Date Document Title/URL Exh.
