In the Matter of Certain Lighters;
General Exclusion Order
The Commission has previously
determined that there is a violation of
section 337 of the Tariff Act of 1930 (19
U.S.C. 1337) in the unlawful
importation and sale of certain lighters
that infringe U.S. Registered Trademark
No. 2,606,241.
Having reviewed the record in this
investigation, including the written
submissions of the parties, the
Commission has made its
determinations on the issues of remedy,
the public interest, and bonding. The
Commission has determined that a
general exclusion from entry for
consumption is necessary to prevent
circumvention of an exclusion order
limited to products of named persons in
that there is a widespread pattern of
violation of section 337 and it would be
difficult to identify the source of
infringing products. Accordingly, the
Commission has determined to issue a
general exclusion order prohibiting the
unlicensed importation of infringing
lighters.
The Commission has also determined
that the public interest factors
enumerated in 19 U.S.C. 1337(d)(1) do

not preclude the issuance of that general
exclusion order, and that the bond

the entered value of the articles in
question.
Accordingly, the Commission hereby
orders that:
1. Lighters that infringe U.S.
Registered Trademark No. 2,606,241 are
excluded from entry for consumption,
entry for consumption from a foreigntrade zone, and withdrawal from
warehouse for consumption until such
date as the trademark is abandoned,
canceled, or rendered invalid or
unenforceable, except under license of
the patent owner or as provided by law.
2. Notwithstanding paragraph 1 of
this Order, the aforesaid lighters are
entitled to entry into the United States
for consumption, entry for consumption
from a foreign-trade zone, and
withdrawal from warehouse for
consumption, under bond in the amount
of 100 percent of the entered value of
such articles pursuant to subsection (j)
of section 337 of the Tariff Act of 1930,
as amended, 19 U.S.C. 1337(j), from the
day after this Order is received by the
United States Trade Representative as
delegated by the President, 70 FR 43251
(July 21, 2005), until such time as the
United States Trade Representative
notifies the Commission that this action
is approved or disapproved but, in any
event, not later than 60 days after the
date of receipt of this action.
3. In accordance with 19 U.S.C.
1337(l), the provisions of this Order
shall not apply to lighters imported by
and for the use of the United States, or
imported for, and to be used for, the
United States with the authorization or
consent of the Government.
