importer does not know that a latent
defect in the merchandise exists at the
time of entry summary, the importer
cannot flag the entry summary for later
resolution through Reconciliation.
CBP notes that the issue of whether
these latent defect claims fall within the
scope of § 158.12, and if so, the
evidence needed to support these
claims, is still under review by the
courts. There have been several
preliminary court rulings on the subject,
but several cases addressing these issues
are still pending at the Court of
International Trade and the Court of
Appeals for the Federal Circuit
(Volkswagen of America, Inc. v. United
States, Court No. 96–01–00132, Court of
International Trade; Saab Cars USA Inc.
v. United States, Court Nos. 04–1268
and 04–1416, Court of Appeals for the
Federal Circuit). Regardless of the final
outcome of the court cases, the
Reconciliation procedure cannot be
used with regard to latent defect claims
made pursuant to § 158.12 or any other
provision.
Test Clarification
Reconciliation may not be used with
respect to claims for value allowances
made pursuant to § 158.12 or any other
provision based on alleged latent
manufacturing defects. Thus, to clarify,
the Reconciliation test covers the
following issues: (1) Value issues other
than claims based on latent
manufacturing defects; (2) classification
issues, on a limited basis; (3) issues
concerning value aspects of entries filed
under heading 9802, Harmonized Tariff
Schedule of the United States (HTSUS;
9802 issues); and (4) post-entry claims
under 19 U.S.C. 1520(d) for the benefits
of the North American Free Trade
Agreement (NAFTA) or the United
States-Chile Free Trade Agreement (US–
CFTA) for merchandise as to which
such claims were not made at the time
of entry. CBP considers this a
clarification of the test procedure
because CBP never contemplated latent
defect claims to be value issues eligible
for Reconciliation.

AGENCY:
ACTION:
Termination of five-year review.
SUMMARY: The subject five-year review
was initiated in May 2005 to determine
whether revocation of the antidumping
duty order on mechanical transfer
presses from Japan would be likely to
lead to continuation or recurrence of
dumping and of material injury to a
domestic industry. On August 1, 2005,
the Department of Commerce published
notice that it was revoking the order
effective June 21, 2005 because ‘‘the
domestic interested parties did not
participate in this sunset review. * * *’’
(70 FR 44089). Accordingly, pursuant to
section 751(c) of the Tariff Act of 1930
(19 U.S.C. 1675(c)), the subject review is
terminated.
DATES:
Effective: June 21, 2005.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This
patent-based section 337 investigation
was instituted by the Commission on
June 3, 2004, based on a complaint filed
by Trend Micro Inc. (‘‘Trend Micro’’) of
Cupertino, California. 69 FR 32044–45
(2004). The complaint alleged violations
of section 337 in the importation into
the United States, the sale for
importation into the United States, or
the sale within the United States after
importation of certain systems for
detecting and removing viruses or
worms, components thereof, and
products containing same by reason of
infringement of claims 1–22 of U.S.
Patent No. 5,623,600 (‘‘the 600 patent’’).
The notice of investigation named
Fortinet, Inc. (‘‘Fortinet’’) of Sunnyvale,
California as the sole respondent.
On October 12, 2004, the ALJ issued
an initial determination (ID) (Order No.
6) terminating the investigation as to
claims 2, 5–6, 9–10, and 16–22 of the
600 patent based upon Trend Micro’s
unopposed motion to withdraw these
claims. The Commission did not review
Order No. 6, hence the claims of the 600
patent in issue are claims 1, 3, 4, 7, 8,
and 11–15.
On December 14, 2004, the ALJ issued
an ID (Order No. 13) granting
complainant Trend Micro’s motion for a
summary determination that it satisfies
the economic prong of the domestic
industry requirement. Order No. 13 was
not reviewed by the Commission.
An evidentiary hearing was held from
January 24, 2005 to January 28, 2005.
On March 29, 2005, a second
evidentiary hearing was conducted and
additional exhibits received into
evidence.
On May 9, 2005, the administrative
law judge (‘‘ALJ’’) issued his final ID
finding a violation of section 337 based
on his findings that claims 4, 7, 8, and
11–15 of the 600 patent are not invalid
or unenforceable, and are infringed by
respondent’s products. The ALJ also
found that claims 1 and 3 of the 600
patent are invalid as anticipated by
prior art and that a domestic industry
exists. He also issued his recommended
determination on remedy and bonding.
On May 20, 2005, respondent Fortinet
filed a petition for review of the final ID
