The first agreement according to the complaint, was a "secret" agreement which would not be filed with the Patent and Trademark Office stating that Stoller's trademarks were all "invalid". The second agreement was an assignment document which the purchasers would be use to be filed with the Patent and Trademark Office to record the assignments. In Johnson's assignment agreement, all of the marks are presented to the PTO as being valid and the "good" will being properly transferred to the assignees.

CHICAGO--LEO STOLLER HAS MOVED TO SUSPEND HIS APPEAL OF GOOGLE INC., DECISION BY JUDGE VIRGINA KENDEL. Stoller had filed a petition to cancel proceeding against Google Inc., in an attempt to cancel the term "google" which has become "generic" and is in the dictionary http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/google . In retaliation Google Inc., filed a Civil Rico action against Stoller's companies, excluding Stoller. Stoller moved to intervene as a necessary party. District Court Judge Virginal Kendell denied Stoller's request and Stoller appealed to the Decision to the Seventh Circuit Court of Appeals. Stoller contends that Google Inc., had no valid defense to Stoller's Motion for Summary Judgment filed in the Trademark Trial and Appeal Board (TTAB) in the cancellation proceeding. Instead Google Inc., attempted to Short circuit the TTAB proceeding to avoid the Board determining the invalidity of the Google Inc., Federal Trademark Registration. See Section 32:53 of McCarthy on Trademarks. Stoller has moved before the Seventh Circuit to suspend the current appeal an permit Google Inc., to file its response to Stoller's motion for Summary Judgment before the TTAB.

Jason Lee Miller is No Edward R. Murrow
When Mr. Edward R. Murrow would report the news about a person he would "never" editorialize after reporting the "news" that "With some more luck, Google will nail Stoller under Federal Racketeering Charges". Edward R. Murrow, a journalist who dared to uphold freedom of thought in a time of McCarthyism. Jason Lee Miller has borough us back to "McCarthyism" in his comments today, for wishing to condemn a party (Stoller) under "Federal Racketeering charges" without due process and without even a trial. Mr. Jason Lee Miller and his elk are a "greater" threat to our democratic way of life than Stoller could ever be! However, Mr. Miller is young enough to change...Let's hope.

CHICAGO--MORE PROSECUTORS, GOVERNMENT OFFICALS AND JUDGES WHO VIOLATE THE RULES OF ETHICS ARE BEING CHARGED THAN EVER BEFORE. Carolina Attorney General Roy Cooper didn't just dismissed all the remaining criminal charges against Evans, Reade Seligmann and Collin Finnerty. He took the extra step of declaring the Duke players innocent -- the victims of a "tragic rush to accuse" by a rogue prosecutor Mike Nifong who was disbarred for his actions. http://sports.espn.go.com/ncaa/news/story?id=2833479 In a related story a veteran prosecutor in northwestern Illinois (Boone County), Glen R. Weber was charged by the Illinois Attorney Registration and Disciplinary Commission http://www.iardc.org/ Case No. 07 CH 61 http://www.iardc.org/07CH0061CM.html for comments that he made in closing arguments in People v. William T. Libberton, 346 Ill App.3d 912, 807 N.E.2d L.

Stoller argues that likewise the Commissioner of Trademarks Lynne G. Beresford has violated Leo Stoller's due process and equal protection rights and has abused her authority by failing to suspend the cancellation of Stoller trademarks pending a Seventh Circuit Court of Appeals decision.

ALEXANDRIA VA--LEO STOLLER CHARGES THE COMMISSIONER FOR TRADEMARKS Ms. Lynne G. Beresford with trampling on his "constitutional rights" of due process and equal protection under the 5th and 14th Amendments of the U.S. Constitution. Notwithstanding the Patent and Trademark Office policy of suspending actions pending District Court and/or Appellate review, Ms. Beresford issued an order canceling Stoller trademarks despite the fact that the district court order had been appealed to the Seventh Circuit Court of Appeals. Ms. Beresford stated in her July 5, 2007 order, "While you have also filed a Federal rule of Civil Procedure 60(b) motion for relief from judgment with the district court, the motion was denied. Although you have filed with the Seventh Circuit a notice of appeal of the denial of the rule 60(b) motion on april 24, 2007, the USPTO does not consider this a valid basis for granting a stay...In addition you have requested suspension pending appeal to the United States Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit on the USPTO's DECISION TO IMPLEMENT THE COURT ORDER...the USPTO considers dismissal of such a case likely, and thus will not delay implementation of the court order on this basis." Stoller argues such a denial of Stoller request is not only a violation of USPTO policy but evidences a clear "bias and prejudice" against Stoller by Beresford. This story continues:

CHICAGO--GOOGLE INC., FILES what Stoller charges is a frivolous response brief in a Seventh Circuit Court of Appeals Case Nos. 07-1569, 07-1612 and 07-1651. Leo Stoller had filed a petition to cancel Google Inc., trademark Google on the grounds that the "google" term has become generic and is now in the dictionary http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/google . Google Inc., in retalation filed a Civil Rico lawsuit against Leo Stoller's companies Central Mfg Co., and Stealth Industries Inc., Google Inc., plead in Bankruptcy Case No. 05-64075 before Judge Jack B. Schmetterer that Leo Stoller was a necessary party and that the bankruptcy "stay" should be lifted in order to sue "Stoller" in the District Court. But when it came time for Google Inc., to file before Judge Virginia Kendel in the Northern District of Illinois, Google Inc., "cleverly" excluded Stoller as a named party and as Stoller has alleged conspired with Bankruptcy Trustee Richard M. Fogel to obtain a "default" judgment against Stoller's companies. By excluding Stoller, Google Inc., was assured of a "set up" judgment with out a proper defense, which they obtained. Stoller than moved to intervene in the Google Inc., Rico Action. Judge Kendell denied Stoller motion and Stoller appealed to the Seventh Circuit. Google Inc., has now filed its response brief, which Stoller alleges is frivolous and won't stand the light of day. Google Inc.,'s brief alleges that Leo Stoller is "not" a necessary party to the Civil Rico Action. Judge William J. Hibbler recently ruled that Stoller could appeal the underlying settlement agreement as between Google Inc., and the Trustee Richard M. Fogel because Stoller could be "damaged" by it. Google Inc., argues nonetheless that Leo Stoller is "not" a necessary party to their frivolous "Civil" Action. On July 11, 2007 the Seventh Circuit issued a "Brief deficiency letter" to Appellee Google. Stoller is now moving to "strike" the entire brief which is according to Stoller "non responsive".

CHICAGO--LEO STOLLER HAS FILED TWO NEW APPEALS OF JUDGE WILLIAM J. HIBBLER DECISIONS with the Seventh Circuit Court of Appeals in the Northern District of Illinois today. On Monday, Judge Hibbler denied a motion for reconsideration filed by Stoller. In Stoller's opinion Judge Hibbler misapplied an Illinois Executive Committee Order. Stoller told Judge Hibbler in open court that his denial of Stoller motion for reconsideration was riddled with reversible "error" stating that Judge Hibbler did not "read" the said Executive Committee Order and has mis applied it. Judge Hibbler replied in open court, "Mr. Stoller I will listen to the Executive Committee, but I WILL NOT LISTEN TO YOU!" This story continues:

CHICAGO--LEO STOLLER HAS CHARGED THE COMMISSIONER OF TRADEMARKS WITH THE TORT OF INTENTIONAL INFLICTION OF EMOTIONAL DISTRESS (IIED). In 25 years Stoller has amassed the largest family of related Federal Trademarks Registrations on the Principle Register, 35 STEALTH and STEALTH formative marks. Although Judge George Lindberg a Northern District of Illinois had issued a cancelation order as a result of a "improper" and "excessive" sanction on Stoller canceling the said marks, Stoller has appealed Judge Lindberg's decision to the Seventh Circuit and Notified Ms. Beresford to "suspend" cancellation pending Stoller's appeal. Ms. Beresford according to Stoller's complaint maliciously "canceled" all of Stoller marks notwithstanding his pending appeal. In the event that Stoller reverses Judge Lindberg there will be no montary damages that can make whole Stoller. Ms Beresford loses her immunity from being sued for "clear" acts of malfeasance, fraud and abuse of her authority. Under Illinois Law Stoller has alleged that Ms. Beresford's conduct in prematurely canceling his large family of marks was "extreme" and "outrageous". Stoller alleges that Ms. Beresford engaged in abuse of power, intended to inflict severe emotional distress or knew that by prematurely canceling Stoller's 35 Federal Trademark Registrations, Ms. Beresfore knew that there "was a high probability that the her conduct would cause Stoller such distress" and the said conduct of Ms. Beresford did in fact cause severe emotional distress. Treece v. Village of Naperville 903 F. Supp. 1251, 1259 (N.D. Ill 1995). In light of these standards a "only a jury could determine whether or not the conduct alleged by Stoller was sufficiently outrageous to support a jury verdict in his favor and against the Commissioner of Trademarks Ms. Beresford on his IIED Claim. Stoller has alleged that even if Stoller's marks are ultimately canceled the fact that Ms. Beresford canceled them prematurely is sufficient for a jury to justify awarding damages to Stoller under his Illinois State Court Claim of IIED. Stoller is asking that Ms. Beresfore be removed from her office as Commissioner of Trademarks and barred from ever holding public office again.

CHICAGO--BARACK OBAMA HAS ATTRACTED THE VOTE OF THE GEORGE McGOVERN Voters. After 1972 they had never disbanded and they have been waiting for a George McGovern "type" candidate for 34 years. They hid out in a cabin in Northern Minnesota. When Illinois Senator Barack Obama through his hat in the 2008 Presidential campaign, the McGovern supporters like the Secadas, finally reamirged. Recently in a debate with Al Gore on the environment, Gore claimed that "green house gases" were the cause of "global warming". Barack Obama disagreed on some authority that his ancestors were from the jungles in Africa and Obama had reliable authority based upon his ancestry past that, "Green house gases had nothing to do with global warming, that animal flatulence is responsible for almost half of the world's greenhouse gases". With that comment Mr. Obama had "locked" in the environment vote and has raised more money since April than any other Democratic candidate $32.5 million dollars among the environmentalist. Obama said if elected president he "will stop all drilling for oil and gas" and force everyone to use only "wind" and "solar" energy. Obama was applauded by the Bicycle Manufacturer Association.

CHICAGO--LEO STOLLER has filed an Appeal with the Federal Circuit http://www.fedcir.gov/ requesting that they issue an order restoring all of the STEALTH Trademarks pending the Appeal of Judge George Lindberg's order canceling them. Stoller also asked to Federal Circuit to issue an order to the Commissioner of Trademarks to restore all STEALTH and STEALTH formative marks that have registered from Oct. 06 to Application status, which may have registered as a result of the PTO prematurely canceling the said STEALTH marks. The PTO was advised to maintain the "status quo" pending the Appeals of Judge Lindberg's orders, but failed to do. Stoller is also exploring other causes of action that he may be able to bring against Ms. Lynne G. Beresfore Commissioner for Trademarks, personally, for alleged "breach" of her duties as Commissioner for Trademarks. Stoller is also consulting with his Senatorial representatives to see what lawfull means is available to have Ms. Beresfore "removed" from her position as Commissioner for Trademarks. Stoller is putting a petition together which will be submitted to Congress seeking Ms. Beresfore removal from her job at the PTO and invites any one who might have knowledge of Ms. Beresfore's character that would serve to disqualify her from being Commissioner for Trademarks please email ldms4@hotmail.com The Americans for the Enforcement of Attorney Ethics (AEAE) A Chicago attorney ethics watch dog group for over 25 years has rated Ms. Beresfore as "unqualified".

CHICAGO--JUDGE WILLIAM J. HIBBLER In the Northern District of Illinois Case No. 06 C 6950 has upheld Stoller's right to Appeal Judge Jack B. Schmetterer's decision denying Stoller's motion to disqualify Illinois Bankruptcy Trustee Richard M. Fogel. Stoller has alleged that Mr. Fogel has engaged in the Appearance of Impropriety. The Illinois Rules of Professional Conduct ARDC http://www.iardc.org/ directs lawyers to avoid "even the appearance of professional impropriety." The Federal Court in the third Circuit has held "The maintenance of justice is so important a consideration that we have held that a court may disqualify an attorney for falling to avoid even the appearance of impropriety". Mr. Fogel's comments to Judge Jack B. Schmetterer on May 17, 2007 in Open Court in Case No. 05-B 64075 when asked by Judge Schmetterer what do you think about Stoller's argument, Mr. Fogel replied, "More garbage from the same bag!" Stoller has alleged that such a statement by Attorney Richard M. Fogel certainly qualifies as an "appearance of impropriety" and violation of the ARDC Rules of Professional Conduct http://www.iardc.org/rulesprofconduct.html. Stoller than moved the ARDC to take a Psychiatric evaluation of Mr. Fogel to determine whether Mr. Fogel is fit to practice law. Judge Schmetterer attempted to shield Trustee Fogel from any additional professional misconduct filed by Stoller by sanctioning Stoller for filing the Psychiatric examination of Fogel without any psychological evidence that Mr. Fogel is mentally unfit to practice law.
