SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The
Commission instituted this investigation
on March 31, 2008, based on a
complaint filed by General Electric
Company (‘‘GE’’). The complaint alleged
violations of section 337 of the Tariff
Act of 1930 (19 U.S.C. 1337) in the
importation into the United States, the
sale for importation, and the sale within
the United States after importation of
certain variable speed wind turbines
and components thereof that allegedly
infringe certain claims of United States
Patent Nos. 5,083,039 and 6,921,985.
The complaint, as amended, named
Mitsubishi Heavy Industries, Ltd.,
Mitsubishi Heavy Industries of America,
Inc., and Mitsubishi Power Systems
Americas, Inc. (collectively, ‘‘MHI’’) as
respondents.
On July 31, 2008, GE filed a motion
to amend the complaint and notice of
investigation to add allegations of
infringement for claims 1–19 of U.S.
Patent No. 7,321,221. MHI opposed the
motion, but requested that, in the event
complainant’s motion was granted, the
procedural schedule deadlines be
pushed back a minimum of three
months. The Commission investigative
attorney supported complainant’s
motion on the condition that the target
date be extended.
On September 16, 2008, the ALJ
issued the subject ID, granting GE’s
motion to amend the complaint and
notice of investigation and extending
the target date by four months from June
30, 2009 to October 30, 2009. No
petitions for review of this ID were filed.
The Commission has determined not
to review the ALJ’s ID.
The authority for the Commission’s
determination is contained in section
337 of the Tariff Act of 1930, as
amended (19 U.S.C. 1337), and in
section 210.42 of the Commission’s
Rules of Practice and Procedure (19 CFR
210.42).
Issued: October 8, 2008.
By order of the Commission.
