SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: By a
notice published on June 22, 2004, the
Commission instituted an investigation
into alleged violations of section 337 in
the importation and sale of certain
plastic food containers by reason of
infringement of certain claims of U.S.
Patent No. 6,056,138 (the ‘‘ ‘138
patent’’); of U.S. Patent No. 6,196,404
(the ‘‘ ‘404 patent’’); and of U.S. Design
Patent No. D 415,420 (the ‘‘ ‘420
patent’’). 69 FR 34691 (June 22, 2004).
Plastic food containers such as those
claimed by the patents in issue are used
for packaging foods from restaurants,
food processors, and educational and
government institutions with food
service programs.
On August 19, 2004, complainant
Newspring Industrial Corp.
PO 00000
Frm 00072
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703

(‘‘Newspring’’) moved for an order
directing that each of the two
respondents, Jiangsu Sainty
Corporation, Ltd. (‘‘Jiangsu’’) and
Taizhou Huasen Household Necessities,
Co., Ltd. (‘‘Taizhou’’), show cause as to
why each should not be found in default
for failure to respond to the complaint
and notice of investigation. Newspring
also requested an order finding the
respondents in default if they failed to
show cause. On August 27, 2004, the
Investigative Attorney (‘‘IA’’) filed a
response in support of the motion for an
order to show cause, but opposed any
finding that respondents are in default
as premature. On August 30, 2004, the
ALJ issued Order No. 5, directing
respondents to show cause no later than
September 17, 2004, why they should
not be held in default.
On September 9, 2004, before the ALJ
ruled on the motions for default,
Newspring filed motions for summary
determinations that there has been a
violation of section 337 and that a
domestic industry has been established
with respect to each of the asserted
patents. Newspring sought a
recommendation for the issuance of a
general exclusion order.
On September 23, 2004, the IA filed
a response supporting the motions with
respect to most but not all issues. He
supported a summary determination
that the domestic industry requirement
had been satisfied as to each of the
patents in issue. He also supported a
summary determination that Jiangsu
had violated section 337 with respect to
each of the patents at issue. As to
Taizhou, the IA supported a summary
determination of violation as to the ‘420
patent, but not as to the ‘138 and ‘404
patents.
On October 12, 2004, the ALJ issued
an ID (Order No. 7) with respect to
Newspring’s motion to find respondents
in default. Noting that neither
respondent responded to the notice to
show cause, the ALJ found the
respondents in default. The Commission
determined not to review the ID.
On February 10, 2005, the ALJ issued
the subject ID (Order No. 8), granting
Newspring’s motions for summary
determinations with respect to most but
not all issues. Consistent with the
position of the IA, the ALJ determined
that a domestic industry had been
established with respect to each of the
asserted patents, and that Jiangsu had
violated section 337 with respect to
each asserted patent as well. He
determined that Taizhou had violated
section 337 with respect to the ‘420
design patent, but found that a genuine
issue of fact remained as to whether the
accused Taizhou products infringed the
