          Interference No. 103,197                                                      


               2.  Declaration testimony44                                              
               Buschmann‘s objections to the testimony of various                       
          witnesses as "hearsay" fail because the motion did not comply                 
          with the following requirements in the APJ’s June 26, 1995,                   
          scheduling order  (at 13-14):45                                                            
                    [A] motion by the senior party to suppress evidence                 
               must . . . explain where the evidence in question is                     
               relied on in the junior party’s opening brief.  A motion                 
               to suppress evidence as inadmissible hearsay must                        
               specifically identify the out-of-court statement in                      
               question and explain why it appears that the opponent is                 
               offering or intends to offer the statement itself (as                    
               opposed to related testimony) to prove the truth of the                  
               matter stated therein.  [Original emphasis.]                             
          Accordingly, the motion is dismissed as to these objections.                  
               The objections to testimony about the November 24, 1987,                 
          exhibit (MX 42) fail because, as explained above, Morrison is                 
          entitled to rely on that drawing to establish the March 15,                   
          1988, date alleged in his original preliminary statement.  The                
          motion is therefore denied as to these objections.                            
               The objections for lack of foundation, i.e., personal                    
          knowledge, fail because the motion does not assert that, or
