The

on October 25, 2016, based on a
complaint filed by Andrea Electronics
Corp. of Bohemia, New York
(‘‘Andrea’’). 81 FR 73418 (Oct. 25,
2016). The complaint alleges violations
of section 337 by reason of infringement
of certain claims of U.S. Patent No.
6,049,607 (‘‘the ’607 patent’’), U.S.
Patent No. 6,363,345 (‘‘the ’345 patent’’),
and U.S. Patent No. 6,377,637 (‘‘the ’637

America, Inc. of Ridgefield Park, New

Office of Unfair Import Investigations
(‘‘OUII’’) is also a party in this
investigation. Samsung was previously
terminated from the investigation. Order
No. 68; Comm’n Notice (Sept. 13, 2017).

patents were also previously terminated
from the investigation. Order No. 37;

On October 26, 2017, the ALJ issued

’345 patent. Specifically, the final ID
found that Andrea does not have
standing to assert the ’345 patent, the

domestic industry requirements.
On November 8, 2017, Andrea and
OUII each filed timely petitions for
review of the final ID. That same day,
Apple filed a contingent petition for
review of the final ID. On November 16,
2017, the parties each filed a timely
response to the petitions for review. On

Specifically, the Commission
determined to review the ID’s findings
on (1) standing, (2) infringement, (3)
invalidity, (4) inequitable conduct, and
(5) domestic industry. On January 25,
2018, Andrea, Apple, and OUII each
