Federal Register / Vol. 81, No. 200 / Monday, October 17, 2016 / Notices
Umicore’s laches defense fails as a
matter of law (ID at 122–124) and also
fails on the merits (ID at 124–126).
Finally, the ID found that Complainants
established the existence of a domestic
industry that practices the asserted
patents under 19 U.S.C. 1337(a)(2). See
ID at 18, 24.
On March 14, 2016, Umicore filed a
petition for review of the ID. Also on
March 14, 2016, the Commission
investigative attorney (‘‘IA’’) petitioned
for review of the ID’s finding that a
laches defense fails as a matter of law
in section 337 investigations. Further on
March 14, 2016, Complainants filed a
contingent petition for review of the ID.
That same day, Umicore filed a motion
under Commission Rules 210.15(a)(2)
and 210.38(a) (19 CFR 210.15(a)(2) and
210.38(a)), for the Commission to
reopen the record in this investigation
to admit a paper published on October
29, 2015, and a press release issued that
day (collectively, ‘‘documents’’). On
March 22, 2016, the parties filed
responses to the petitions for review. On
March 24, 2016, Complainants and the
IA filed oppositions to Umicore’s
motion to reopen the record. On April
5, 2016, Umicore moved for leave to file
a reply. The Commission has
determined to grant Umicore’s motion
for leave to file a reply.
On April 8, 2016, 3M Corporation
(‘‘3M’’) filed a motion to intervene
under Commission Rule 210.19. 3M
requests that the Commission grant it
‘‘with full participation rights in this
Investigation in order to protect its
significant interests in the accused
materials.’’
On May 11, 2016, the Commission
determined to review the final ID in
part. 81 FR 30548–50 (May 17, 2016).
Specifically, the Commission
determined to review (1) the ID’s
contributory and induced infringement
findings; (2) the ID’s domestic industry
findings under 19 U.S.C. 1337(a)(3)(C);
and (3) the ID’s findings on laches. The
Commission determined to deny
Umicore’s motion to reopen the record
to admit certain documents. Id. The
Commission also determined to deny
3M’s motion to intervene, but stated that
it would consider 3M’s comments in
considering remedy, bonding and the
public interest this investigation if a
violation of Section 337 is found.
The Commission requested the parties
to brief their positions on the issues
under review with reference to the
applicable law and the evidentiary
record, and posed specific briefing
questions. On May 23, 2016, the parties
filed submissions to the Commission’s
questions. On June 3, 2016, the parties
VerDate Sep<11>2014

filed responses to the initial
submissions.
Pursuant to Commission rule 210.45
(19 CFR 210.45), Umicore’s request for
a Commission hearing was granted.
Details of the hearing are set forth
below.
Commission Hearing: The
Commission will hold the public
hearing on Thursday, November 17,
2016, in the Commission’s Main
Hearing Room (Room 101), 500 E Street
SW., Washington DC 20436, beginning
at 10 a.m. The hearing will be limited
to the issues of laches, contributory
infringement, and the public interest.
The hearing will consist of two panels.
The first panel will be limited to the
parties (i.e., complainants, respondents,
and the IA), who will be given an
opportunity to comment on the issues
identified above based upon the record
in this investigation. A representative
for each of the private parties and the IA
may present opening remarks not lasting
more than 10 minutes. After the opening
remarks, the Commissioners may ask
questions of the panelists. This is a
public hearing; confidential business
information (‘‘CBI’’) should not be
discussed. A party, however, can draw
the Commission’s attention to CBI, if
necessary, by pointing to where in the
record the information can be found.
The name and contact information of
the parties’ respective representatives
must be filed with the Office of the
Secretary by Friday, November 4, 2016.
The first panel will be from 10 a.m. to
11:30 a.m.
The second panel will be limited to
public interest issues. In particular, the
Commission will hear presentations
concerning the appropriate remedy (if
any) and the effect that such remedy
would have upon the public interest.
Government agencies, public-interest
groups, and interested members of the
public may make oral presentations on
the issues of remedy and the public
interest. Parties to the investigation are
expected to present any public interest
comments during the first panel and
will not participate in the second panel.
The panel will be conducted in like
manner as the first panel, i.e., an
opportunity will be given for opening
remarks, not lasting more than 10
minutes, and Commissioners may ask
questions of the panelists. The second
panel will begin at 11:30 a.m.
After the conclusion of the hearing,
no additional written submissions or
arguments will be permitted.
Notice of Appearance: Written
requests to appear at the Commission
hearing with respect to the second panel
(i.e., public interest only) must be filed

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
