The complaint alleged violations of section 337 of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended, 19 U.S.C. 1337, in the sale for importation, the importation, or sale in the United States after importation of certain balloon dissection devices and products containing same by reason of infringement of certain claims of U.S. Patent No. 6,312,442 (‘‘the ‘442 patent’’). The notice of investigation named as respondents Pajunk Medizintechnik GmbH of Geisingen, Germany; Pajunk Medizintechnologie GmbH of Geisingen, Germany; and Pajunk Medical Systems LP of Norcross, Georgia. On February 8, 2013, complainant Covidien and respondents Pajunk GmbH Medizintechnologie and Pajunk Medical Systems LP filed a motion to (1) correct the named respondents; (2) stay the procedural schedule; and (3) terminate the investigation on the basis of a consent order stipulation and consent order. The motion seeks to correct the named respondents by terminating ‘‘Pajunk Medizintechnik GmbH’’ because it does not exist as a legal entity and correcting named respondent ‘‘Pajunk Medizintechnologie GmbH’’ to its proper name, ‘‘Pajunk GmbH Medizintechnogie.’’ On February 11, 2013, the Commission investigative attorney filed a response in support of the motion. On February 12, 2013, the ALJ issued Order No. 3, granting the motion. The parts of the order correcting the named respondents and terminating the investigation on the basis of a consent order stipulation constitute an ID. The ALJ stated that there is no indication that termination based on the consent order stipulation would have an adverse impact on the public interest. No petitions for review were filed. Having considered the ID and the relevant portions of the record, the Commission has determined not to review the ID and to issue the subject consent order. This action is taken under the authority of section 337 of the Tariff Act VerDate Mar<14>2013 15:09 Mar 20, 2013 Jkt 229001 of 1930, as amended (19 U.S.C. 1337), and of section 210.42(h) of the Commission’s Rules of Practice and Procedure (19 CFR 210.42(h)).
