Respondents include Samsung Electronics Co., Ltd. (Republic of Korea); Samsung Electronics America, Inc. (Ridgefield Park, NJ); Samsung Telecommunications America, LLC (Richardson, TX); Samsung Semiconductor, Inc. (San Jose, CA); and Qualcomm, Inc. (San Diego, CA) (collectively, Respondents). NVIDIA later withdrew all allegations regarding the ’488, ’667, ’913, and ’063 patents and some allegations regarding the ’140, ’372, and ’685 patents. On October 9, 2015, the presiding administrative law judge (ALJ) issued his ID finding no violation by Respondents of section 337 with respect to the remaining allegations. Specifically, regarding the ‘140 patent, the ID concluded: (1) Claim 14 is invalid for obviousness; (2) the accused products do not infringe; and (3) there is no domestic industry. Regarding the ‘372 patent, the ID concluded: (1) Claim 23 and claim 24 are invalid for anticipation; (2) some of the accused products infringe claim 23, but none of the accused products infringe claim 24; and (3) there is no domestic industry. Regarding the ‘685 patent, the ID concluded: (1) Neither claim 1 nor claim 15 are invalid for anticipation; (2) the accused products do not infringe claim 1 or claim 15; and (3) there is a domestic industry. The ID additionally found that the scope of this investigation is limited to consumer electronics and display devices that include graphics processing capabilities and that have graphics processing units therein, rejecting NVIDIA’s argument to include Qualcomm graphics processing units separate and apart from the consumer electronic and display devices. On October 26, 2015, NVIDIA filed a petition for review of the ALJ’s findings related to the ’372 and ’685 patents, and Respondents filed a contingent petition for review of the ALJ’s findings related to the ’140 and ’685 patents. NVIDIA did not seek review of the ALJ’s findings related to the ’140 patent. On October 30, 2015, the ALJ issued his recommended determination on remedy E:\FR\FM\18DEN1.SGM 18DEN1
