SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On March
14, 2016, the Commission instituted the
original investigation based on a
Complaint filed by Nautilus Hyosung
Inc. (now Hyosung TNS Inc.) of Seoul,
Republic of Korea, and Nautilus
Hyosung America Inc. of Irving, Texas
(collectively, ‘‘Complainants’’). The
Notice of Investigation named Diebold
Nixdorf, Incorporated, and Diebold SelfService Systems, both of North Canton,
Ohio (collectively, ‘‘Respondents’’) as
Respondents. The Complaint alleged
Respondents were violating section 337
of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended,
19 U.S.C. 1337, by importing into the
United States, selling for importation, or
selling within the United States after
importation certain automated teller
machines, ATM modules, components
thereof, and products containing same
that infringe one or more of claims 1–
3, 6, 8, and 9 (‘‘the asserted claims’’) of
U.S. Patent No. 8,523,235 (‘‘the ’235
patent’’). The Office of Unfair Import
Investigations (‘‘OUII’’) was not named
as a party.
On July 14, 2017, the Commission
found Respondents in violation of
section 337 with respect to the asserted
claims of the ’235 patent, and issued a
limited exclusion order and two ceaseand-desist orders with respect to the
asserted claims (‘‘the remedial orders’’).
Respondents appealed the
Commission’s determination to the U.S.
Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit
(‘‘Federal Circuit’’).
On August 15, 2018, the Federal
Circuit issued an opinion finding the
asserted claims of the ’235 patent
invalid for indefiniteness pursuant to 35
U.S.C. 112(6), and reversing the
Commission’s determination that
Respondents violated section 337.
Diebold Nixdorf, Inc. v. International
Trade Comm’n, Appeal No. 2017–2553,

Federal Register / Vol. 83, No. 241 / Monday, December 17, 2018 / Notices
On November 13, 2018, Respondents
petitioned the Commission to rescind
the remedial orders based on the
Federal Circuit ruling that the asserted
claims are invalid. On November 23,
2018, Complainants opposed the
petition, and argued that the
Commission should instead reopen the
record for further evidence on
indefiniteness.
Also on November 13, 2018,
Complainants moved to reopen the
record for the limited purpose of
admitting evidence relating to
indefiniteness. On November 23, 2018,
Respondents opposed the motion,
arguing that the Federal Circuit
invalidity ruling is binding on the
Commission. Respondents also argued
Complainants should have to show
cause why they should not be
sanctioned for a frivolous filing. On
November 29, 2018, Complainants
moved for leave to file a reply in
support of their motion.
Having considered the petition and
response, the Commission has
determined to institute a rescission
proceeding, and finds that the Federal
Circuit’s ruling that the asserted claims
are invalid is a changed circumstance
that warrants rescinding the remedial
orders. The Commission therefore has
determined to rescind the remedial
orders.
In light of the Commission’s
determination to rescind the remedial
orders, the Commission has also
determined to deny as moot
Complainants’ motion to reopen the
record. The Commission also denies
Respondents’ request for sanctions, and
denies Complainants’ motion for leave
to file a reply. The rescission proceeding
is hereby terminated.
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 part
210 of the Commission’s Rules of
Practice and Procedure (19 CFR part
210).
