Pistol Wavin' New Haven, for now...
I have a beer that due to various issues spent about 3 weeks in primary 3 1/2 in secondary and now 2 in tertiary. I'm going to bottle it this week.

Will there still be enough yeast in suspension for carbonation? I used wyeast 1056.

I'm probably being overly paranoid but it's for a friend and I don't want him to get 5 gallons of flat beer...
 
I used that yeast to make a fruit beer that I fermented for a month and then conditioned for another month, after which I bottled the beer and it came out tasting amazing! Anyway, I think you'll be fine. What kind of beer was it?
 
You shouldn't have any trouble. If you think that you might be having some issues with carbonation, just store the bottles in a ~warm~ place for a week or so.. that is warm as in 75 or so ( normally only a problem in the winter time).
