Federal Register / Vol. 79, No. 142 / Thursday, July 24, 2014 / Notices
Trade Comm’n., 690 F.3d 1318 (Fed.
Cir. 2012).
On February 12, 2014, the
Commission issued a Notice, Order, and
Opinion deciding certain aspects of the
investigation and remanding other
aspects to the chief administrative law
judge (‘‘ALJ’’). 79 FR 9277–79 (Feb. 18,
2014); see also Comm’n Op. Remanding
Investigation (Feb. 12, 2014); Comm’n
Order Remanding Investigation (Feb. 12,
2014). On February 24, 2014, Nokia
petitioned for reconsideration of the
Commission’s remand Order and
Opinion. On March 24, 2014, the
Commission granted in part the petition
for reconsideration and issued a revised
remand notice, order, and opinion. 79
FR 17571–73 (Mar. 28, 2014).
On May 21, 2014, respondents Nokia
Corp. and Nokia Inc. and non-party
MMO filed a motion to substitute MMO
for Nokia Corp. as a result of MMO’s
recent acquisition of Nokia’s Devices
and Services business unit and to
amend the Notice of Investigation
(‘‘NOI’’). MMO also filed a motion to
intervene for the limited purpose of
filing the motion to substitute parties
and amend the NOI. On May 30, 2014,
the Commission investigative attorney
(‘‘IA’’) filed a response, supporting the
request to amend the NOI and to add
MMO as a respondent but opposing the
request to terminate Nokia Corp. from
the investigation. On June 2, 2014,
complainants InterDigital filed a
response likewise agreeing that the NOI
should be amended to add MMO as a
respondent but that Nokia Corp. should
not be terminated from the
investigation.
On June 18, 2014, the presiding ALJ
issued the subject ID, granting MMO’s
motion to intervene and granting in part
Nokia’s and MMO’s motion to amend
the NOI. Specifically, the ALJ granted
the motion to add MMO as a respondent
but denied the motion with respect to
substituting MMO for Nokia Corp. and
terminating Nokia Corp. from the
investigation.
On June 26, 2014, Nokia and MMO
filed a petition for review of the subject
ID, arguing that the ALJ erred by
granting relief not requested by either
moving party and by failing to substitute
MMO for Nokia Corp. and terminate
Nokia Corp. from the investigation. On
July 1, 2014, the IA filed a response to
Nokia’s petition. On July 3, 2014,
InterDigital filed a response to Nokia’s
petition.
The Commission has determined not
to review the subject ID. The
Commission notes that pursuant to
Commission Rule 210.21(c), 19 CFR
210.21(c), Nokia Corp. may enter into a
VerDate Mar<15>2010

Jkt 232001
consent order to terminate its
participation in this investigation.
The authority for the Commission’s
determination is contained in section
337 of the Tariff Act of 1930, as
amended (19 U.S.C. 1337), and in Part
210 of the Commission’s Rules of
Practice and Procedure (19 CFR part
210).
Issued: July 18, 2014.
By order of the Commission.

Secretary to the Commission.
