Robert W. Kearns, Plaintiff/cross-Appellant v. Chrysler Corporation, and American Motors Corporation, Robert W. Kearns v. General Motors Corporation, Robert W. Kearns v. General Motors Corporation and Brown's Buick & Isuzu
Citation: 38 F.3d 1222Docket: 94-1057
Court: Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit; November 30, 1993; Federal Appellate Court
Robert W. Kearns, the plaintiff/cross-appellant, filed motions seeking extensions to submit his briefs in multiple appeals due to recent health issues and requested a stay on ongoing litigation in unspecified trial courts. The Houston Inventors Association also sought permission to submit an amicus brief supporting Kearns in two of his appeals. The court granted Kearns' request for an extension in appeal nos. 93-1450 and 93-1470, establishing a new deadline for his brief to be 45 days from the order date. Kearns' request regarding appeal no. 93-1535 was treated as a motion for reconsideration of a prior dismissal. Consequently, the dismissal was vacated, the appeal was reinstated, and Kearns' brief in this case is due 40 days after he submits his brief for appeals 93-1450 and 93-1470. Additionally, his request for an extension in appeal no. 94-1057 was granted, with the brief due 40 days following the submission for appeal no. 93-1535. The court denied Kearns' motions for stays of unspecified proceedings. The request from the Houston Inventors Association to file an amicus brief in support of Kearns was granted, with all such briefs due concurrently with Kearns' briefs.
