On the same date, Ninestar filed an unopposed motion for leave to file a motion for summary determination that its accused products do not infringe the asserted patents. All of the active respondents’ motions were contingent on the ALJ construing the asserted claims to require a pivotable coupling member. Also, on the same date, Canon moved for summary determination of infringement with respect to all of the respondents’ accused products, both active and defaulting. Canon’s motion was contingent on the ALJ construing the asserted claims to require a coupling member that does not need to pivot or incline. On December 10, 2018, Canon stated in its response to the two pending summary determination motions that it would not oppose the motions if the ALJ construed the asserted claims to require a pivotable coupling member. On the same date, OUII filed a response supporting all of the motions for summary determination of noninfringement, including Ninestar’s motion for leave to file its motion for summary determination of noninfringement. On February 28, 2019, the ALJ issued her Markman Order (Order No. 38) construing the asserted claims to require a pivotable coupling member. On March 6, 2019, Ninestar moved, based on the Markman Order’s claim construction, for summary determination of noninfringement. On March 8, 2019, Canon stated in its response to Ninestar’s motion that it would not oppose the motion based on the Markman Order. On March 13, 2019, the ALJ issued the subject ID (Order No. 40) granting each motion for summary determination of non-infringement. In the subject ID, the ALJ also denied Canon’s motion for summary determination of infringement as moot. On March 25, 2019, Canon and the Active Respondents each petitioned for review of the subject ID. On April 1, 2019, Canon and the Active Respondents each filed a response in opposition to the other party’s petition for review. On the same date, OUII filed a response in opposition to each petition for review. On May 6, 2019, the Commission determined to review the ID and the underlying Markman Order in their entirety and requested the parties to respond to certain questions concerning the issues under review. On May 14, 2019, Canon filed its written submission in response to the Commission questions. Canon stated that it does not seek relief against the defaulting respondents unless the Markman VerDate Sep<11>2014 18:10 May 23, 2019 Jkt 247001 Order’s construction requiring a pivotable coupling member is modified. Having reviewed the record of the investigation, including Order No. 40 and the Markman Order, the parties’ briefing, and Canon’s response, the Commission has determined to affirm the subject ID. Accordingly, the Commission finds no violation of section 337. The investigation is 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. 24183 The publication of this notice opens a period for public comment on the Consent Decree.
