SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On August
10, 2020, the Commission instituted this
investigation based on a complaint filed
by Nokia Technologies Oy and Nokia
Corporation both of Espoo, Finland
(collectively, ‘‘Nokia’’). 85 FR 48263–64
(Aug. 10, 2020). The complaint alleged
violations of section 337 based on the
importation into the United States, the
sale for importation, or the sale within
the United States after importation of
certain electronic devices, including
computers, tablet computers, and
components and modules thereof by
reason of infringement of certain claims
of U.S. Patent Nos. 8,144,764; 7,532,808;
6,950,469; 7,724,818; and 8,583,706
(‘‘the ’706 patent’’). Id. The
Commission’s notice of investigation
named the following nine Lenovo
entities as respondents: Lenovo (United
States), Inc. of Morrisville, North
Carolina; Lenovo Group Limited of
Quarry Bay, Hong Kong; Lenovo
(Beijing) Limited of Beijing, China;
Lenovo (Shanghai) Electronics
Technology Co. Ltd. of Shanghai, China;
Lenovo PC HK Limited of Quarry Bay,
Hong Kong; Lenovo Information
Products Shenzhen Co. Ltd. of
Shenzhen, China; Lenovo Mobile
Communication of Wuhan, China;
Lenovo Corporation of Wujiang, China;
and Lenovo Centro Tecnologico S. de
RL CV of Nuevo Leon, Mexico
(collectively, ‘‘Lenovo’’). Id. at 48264.
The notice of investigation also named
the Office of Unfair Import
Investigations (‘‘OUII’’) as a party. Id.
On August 12, 2020, Google filed a
motion to intervene in this investigation
as to the ’706 patent, asserting that it has
an interest in infringement and
invalidity issues regarding that patent.
VerDate Sep<11>2014

Jkt 253001
On August 24, 2020, Nokia, Lenovo, and
OUII filed responses not opposing
Google’s intervention.
On September 4, 2020, the ALJ issued
the subject ID granting the motion. The
ID notes Commission Rule 210.19,
which provides that ‘‘[a]ny person
desiring to intervene in an
investigation’’ may file a motion before
the administrative law judge, who ‘‘may
grant the motion to the extent and upon
such terms as may be proper under the
circumstances.’’ 19 CFR 210.19. The ID
finds that no dispute exists that (1)
‘‘Google’s motion to intervene was
timely, having been filed two days after
the institution of the investigation’’; (2)
‘‘Google has an interest in infringement
and invalidity issues regarding the ’706
patent’’; and (3) ‘‘Google’s interests are
not adequately protected by the other
parties in this investigation.’’ ID at 5.
While Google seeks intervention only as
to the ’706 patent, the ID finds that ‘‘the
record does not support a limited
intervention’’ and that ‘‘Google’s
intervention may be useful with respect
to all the patents, not only the ’706
patent.’’ Id. Thus, the ID adds Google to
the investigation ‘‘as an intervenor
without limitation.’’ Id. No one
petitioned for review of the subject ID.
The Commission has determined not
to review the subject ID. Google is
hereby an intervenor.
The Commission vote for this
determination took place on September
29, 2020.
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).
By order of the Commission.
Issued: September 29, 2020.

Secretary to the Commission.
