JUDGMENT - PRELIMINARY MOTIONS - Bd. R. 127
1As part of the Board’s efforts under the Government Paperwork Elim ination Act, signatures on
papers originating from the Board are being phased out in favor of a com pletely electronic record.
Consequently, in this case papers originating at the Board will not have signatures. The signature
requirements for the parties have not changed. See e.g., 37 C.F.R. § 10.18.
