Download as PDF Federal Register / Vol. 70, No. 240 / Thursday, December 15, 2005 / Notices the petitions. On October 6, 2005, the Commission issued a notice indicating that it had determined to extend the deadline for determining whether to review the final ID by 8 days, i.e., from October 6, 2005, until October 14, 2005. On October 20, 2005, the Commission issued a notice indicating that it had determined to review the final ID in its entirety. 70 FR 61157 (October 20, 2005). In connection with its review, the Commission requested written submissions on the issues under review and the issues of remedy, the public interest, and bonding. On October 27, 2005, Gateway filed a motion to stay the Commission’s review of the ID and remand to the ALJ for additional findings concerning a license agreement related to the patents at issue in this investigation. On November 7, 2005, HP and the IA filed separate responses to Gateway’s motion. Having examined the record of this investigation, including the final ID and the submissions of the parties, the Commission has determined to reverse the ALJ’s finding of literal infringement with respect to claims 7, 24, and 41 of the ‘184 patent and claim 9 of the ‘976 patent and to remand the investigation to the ALJ for findings concerning infringement of these claims under the doctrine of equivalents and whether the technical prong of the domestic industry requirement has been met in regard to the ‘184 and ‘976 patents. The Commission has also determined to vacate that portion of the ID which concerns infringement of claim 1 of the ‘318 patent under the doctrine of equivalents. The Commission has determined to affirm the remainder of the ID. The Commission has also directed the ALJ to consider and rule on Motion Docket No. 52C, filed by Gateway on October 27, 2005, which concerns a license agreement related to the patents at issue in this investigation. Finally, the Commission has directed the ALJ to extend the target date of the investigation as may be necessary to conclude the proceedings and to issue his findings on remand two months before the new target date. This action is taken under the authority of section 337 of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (19 U.S.C. 1337), and section 210.45 of the Commission’s Interim Rules of Practice and Procedure (19 CFR 210.45). Issued: December 8, 2005. By order of the Commission. Marilyn R. Abbott, Secretary to the Commission. [FR Doc.
