Interference No. 103,352
We note for the record that counsel for Khokhar orally
requested at final hearing that we reconsider the denial of that
motion. Any request for reconsideration at this time, over four
years after the original order was issued, is considered,
extremely belated. Moreover, a party is not ordinarily permitted
to raise orally at final hearing a matter which could have been
addressed in the party's brief or reply brief. Cf. Rosenblum v.
Hiroshima, 220 USPQ 383, 384 (Comm'r 1983). In this regard, any
action on our part must be based exclusively on written
correspondence, and not on oral communications. See 37 CFR 1.2.
For all of the foregoing reasons, we cannot honor Khokhar's oral
request.
II.
Similarly, the Khokhar motion to disqualify senior party
counsel was filed on Sept. 20, 1995, and was dismissed in the
same interlocutory order discussed above. Since Khokhar has not
challenged the propriety of that order in any way, the motion to
disqualify counsel stands dismissed.
