The area described contains 5,170.20 acres
in Custer County.
The purpose of the proposed
withdrawal is to protect and preserve
unique cave resources, including the
caverns of great scientific and public
interest, located around the Jewel Cave
National Monument, one of the largest
known cave systems in the world.
The use of a right-of-way or
cooperative agreement would not
provide adequate protection for this area
due to the broad scope and
nondiscretionary nature of the general
mining laws.
As proposed, the withdrawal would
be for a period of 20 years.
No alternative sites are feasible.
No water will be needed to fulfill the
purpose of the requested withdrawal.
For a period of 90 days from the date
of publication of this notice, all persons
who wish to submit comments,
suggestions, or objections in connection
with the proposed withdrawal may
present their views in writing to the
Forest Supervisor, Black Hills National
Forest.
Comments, including names and
street addresses of respondents, will be
available for public review at the Forest
Supervisor’s Office, Black Hills National
Forest, 25041 N. Highway 16, Custer,
South Dakota 57730, during regular
business hours. Individual respondents
may request confidentiality. If you wish
to withhold your name or address from
public review or from disclosure under
the Freedom of Information Act, you
must state this prominently at the
beginning of your comments. Such
requests will be honored to the extent

connection with the proposed
withdrawal to be announced at a later
date. A notice of the time, place, and
date will be published in the Federal
Register and a local newspaper at least
30 days before the scheduled date of a
meeting.
For a period of two years from the
date of publication of this notice in the
Federal Register, the land will be
segregated from location or entry under
the United States mining laws, unless
the application is denied or canceled or
the withdrawal is approved prior to that

pertinent to National Forest lands and
subject to discretionary approval.
The application will be processed in

record for this investigation may be

docket (EDIS) at https://edis.usitc.gov.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The
Commission instituted this investigation
on November 14, 2003, based on a
complaint filed on behalf of Cirrus
Logic, Inc. of Austin, TX (‘‘Cirrus’’). 68
FR 64641 (Nov. 14, 2003). The
complaint, as supplemented, alleged
violations of section 337 in the
importation into the United States, sale
for importation, and sale within the
United States after importation of
certain audio digital-to-analog
converters and products containing
same by reason of infringement of
claims 1 and 11 of U.S. Patent No.
6,492,928 (‘‘the ’928 patent’’). The
notice of investigation named Wolfson
Microelectronics, PLC of Edinburgh,
United Kingdom; and Wolfson
Microelectronics, Inc. of San Diego, CA
(collectively ‘‘Wolfson’’) as respondents.
On December 29, 2003, the ALJ issued
an ID (Order No. 5) granting
complainant’s motion to amend the
complaint and notice of investigation to
add allegations of infringement of
claims 2, 3, 5, 6, and 15 of the ’928
patent, and of claims 9, 12, and 19 of
U.S. Patent No. 6,011,501 (‘‘the ’501
patent’’). 69 FR 4177 (Jan. 28, 2004). On
July 1, 2004, the ALJ issued an ID (Order
No. 16) granting complainant’s motion
to terminate the investigation as to
claims 1 and 2 of the ’928 patent. On
July 27, 2004, the ALJ issued an ID
(Order No. 24) granting complainant’s
motion to terminate the investigation in
part as to claim 11 of the ’928 patent.
Orders Nos. 5, 16, and 24 were not
reviewed by the Commission.
The ALJ held an evidentiary hearing
in the investigation from August 3,
2004, to August 11, 2004, and on
November 15, 2004, he issued his final
ID finding a violation of section 337
based on his findings that the asserted
claims of the ’501 patent are infringed,
that they are not invalid in view of any
prior art, and that claims 9 and 12 of the
’501 patent are not invalid because of
failure to provide an enabling written
description of the claimed invention.
PO 00000
Frm 00157
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703

The ALJ found the ’928 patent to be
unenforceable because the inventors
intentionally withheld highly material
prior art from the examiner during the
prosecution of the ’928 patent
application at the United States Patent
and Trademark Office (‘‘USPTO’’). As
an independent ground for
unenforceability, the ALJ found that the
’928 patent is unenforceable because
one person was mistakenly listed on the
patent as an inventor. The ALJ found
that the accused devices infringe the
asserted claims of the ’928 patent, if
enforceable, that the asserted claims of
the ’928 patent are not invalid in view
of any prior art, or because of a failure
to provide an enabling written
description of the claimed invention, or
for failure to disclose the best mode.
On November 23, 2004, the USPTO
issued a certificate correcting the
inventorship of the ’928 patent thereby
curing one ground on which the
Commission had found the patent
unenforceable. On December 30, 2004,
the Commission determined to review
and reverse the ID’s finding that the ’928
patent is unenforceable due to incorrect
inventorship in view of the issued
certificate of correction by the USPTO.
70 FR 1275 (Jan. 6, 2005). It further
determined not to review the remainder
of the ID, thereby finding a violation of
section 337. Id.
On February 16, 2005, the
Commission determined that the
appropriate form of relief is a limited
exclusion order prohibiting the
importation of Wolfson’s audio digitalto-analog converters that infringe claims
9, 12 and 19 of the ’501 patent. The
limited exclusion order applies to any of
the affiliated companies, parents,
subsidiaries, licensees, contractors, or
other related business entities, or their
successors or assigns, of Wolfson.
Complainants Cirrus and respondents
Wolfson report that they have now
settled all outstanding patent disputes
and related actions. Accordingly, on
April 4, 2005, pursuant to Commission
rule 210.76(a)(1), Cirrus and Wolfson
filed a joint petition for rescission of the
limited exclusion order issued in the
investigation.
Having reviewed the parties’
submissions, the Commission has
determined that the settlement
agreement satisfies the requirement of
Commission rule 210.76(a)(1), 19 CFR
210.76(a)(1), for changed conditions of
fact or law. The Commission therefore
has issued an order rescinding the
limited exclusion order previously
issued in this investigation.
This action is taken under the
authority of section 337 of the Tariff Act
of 1930 (19 U.S.C. 1337) and section
