HONG V. STORM - Page 5




          Interference No. 103,636                                                    

          simultaneously rule on its evidentiary objection to the                     
          Japanese Kokai and the merits of Storm's motion for judgment                
          because Hong was not given an opportunity to address the                    
          merits after Storm's reply and after the Board's ruling on the              
          objection.  The junior party contends that the APJ should have              
          decided the evidentiary objection alone and then should have                
          provided the junior party an opportunity to oppose the merits               
          of Storm's motion rather than rule on its merits                            
          simultaneously.  Hong then argues in its response that Storm's              
          motion for judgment is without merit and urges that judgment                
          should not be entered against it.                                           
               Hong no longer asserts an evidentiary objection to the                 
          Japanese Kokai.
