Two respondents, Fu-Ching Technical Industry, Co., Ltd., and Gem Electronics, Inc., remained active. On October 13, 2009, the Administrative Law Judge (‘‘ALJ’’) issued his final initial determination (‘‘ID’’) and recommended determination on remedy and bonding. The ALJ found a violation of section 337 by the defaulting respondents in connection with the ‘194 patent. On December 14, 2009, the Commission determined to review the final ID in part, but the Commission did not review the ALJ’s determination with respect to the ‘194 patent. The Commission issued a general exclusion order on March 31, 2010 with respect to the ‘194 patent based on a finding of violation of Section 337 by the defaulting respondents.

Holland further requested that the Commission conduct all proceedings related to the advisory opinion in an expedited manner and not refer the matter to an administrative law judge (ALJ). On October 31, 2011, the Commission determined to institute an advisory opinion proceeding based on Holland’s request. 76 FR 68504 (November 4, 2011). The Commission directed PPC and the Commission Investigative Attorney (‘‘IA’’) to state their views regarding whether they oppose Holland’s request for an advisory opinion that its subject connectors are not covered by the March 31, 2010, general exclusion order, and if so, whether they believe the matter should be referred to an ALJ. Id. On November 11, 2011, PPC filed a response in support of Holland’s request for an advisory opinion. On November 14, 2011, the IA also filed a response in PO 00000 Frm 00098 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 support of Holland’s request. Both PPC and the IA stated that it was not necessary to refer this matter to the ALJ.

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 210.79(a) of the Commission’s Rules of Practice and Procedure (19 CFR 210.79(a)).
