infringement of U.S. Patent Nos.
8,970,345 (‘‘the ’345 patent’’); 7,173,516
(‘‘the ’516 patent’’); 7,180,260 (‘‘the ’260
patent’’); 9,483,935 (‘‘the ’935 patent’’);
7,956,718 (‘‘the ’718 patent’’); and
8,410,895 (‘‘the ’895 patent’’). See id.
The notice of investigation named
Chamberlain (formerly, The
Chamberlain Group, Inc.) as the
respondent in this investigation. See id.
The Office of Unfair Import
Investigations (‘‘OUII’’) was not named
as a party. See id.
On February 10, 2021, the
Commission terminated the
investigation as to the ’516 patent based
on the withdrawal of the allegations in
the complaint as to that patent. See
Order No. 10 (Jan. 19, 2021), unreviewed
by Comm’n Notice (Feb. 10, 2021).
On February 9, 2022, the Commission
issued a final determination finding a
violation of section 337 based on
Chamberlain’s infringement of the
asserted claims of the ’935, ’718, and
’895 patents, but not the ’345 and ’260
patents. See 87 FR 8605–06 (Feb. 15,
2022). The Commission further
determined to: (1) issue a limited
exclusion order against Chamberlain’s
infringing products and a cease and
desist order against Chamberlain
(collectively, the ‘‘remedial orders’’);
and (2) set a bond during the period of
Presidential review in the amount of
one hundred (100) percent of the
entered value of the infringing articles.
See id. On March 30, 2022, the
Commission issued modified remedial
orders to confirm that the covered
products or articles in the remedial
orders include garage door openers, gate
operators, and commercial operators.
See 87 FR 19709–10 (Apr. 5, 2022).
On April 11 and 12, 2022,
respectively, Overhead Door and
Chamberlain filed appeals from the
Commission’s final determination with
the U.S. Court of Appeals for the
Federal Circuit. See Chamberlain Grp.,
LLC v. ITC, Appeals Nos. 22–1664, 22–
1656 (consolidated). On June 14, 2023,
the Federal Circuit dismissed the
appeals based on a joint stipulation of
voluntary dismissal. See Chamberlain
Grp., LLC v. ITC, Order, Appeal No. 22–
1664, ECF No. 95 (Fed. Cir. June 14,
2023).
On August 5, 2022, the Commission
instituted an enforcement proceeding
under Commission Rule 210.75 (19 CFR
210.75) to investigate alleged violations
of the remedial orders by Chamberlain’s
legacy and redesigned products. See 87
FR 48039 (Aug. 5, 2022). In addition to
Overhead Door and Chamberlain, OUII
was also named as a party to the
enforcement proceeding. See id. The
Commission subsequently terminated
VerDate Sep<11>2014
18:12 Jul 24, 2023
Jkt 259001
the enforcement proceeding based on
settlement. See Order No. 26 (June 14,
2023), unreviewed by Comm’n Notice
(July 12, 2023).
On June 13, 2023, Overhead Door and
Chamberlain filed a joint petition to
rescind the remedial orders (original
and modified) based on the settlement
agreement. On July 12, 2023, the
Commission determined to institute a
rescission proceeding and to rescind the
remedial orders (original and modified).
Comm’n Notice (July 12, 2023). The
rescission proceeding has been
terminated. Id.
On June 15, 2023, Chamberlain filed
an unopposed motion for the return of
the bond it posted under the remedial
orders during the period of Presidential
review. On June 20, 2023, OUII filed a
response in support of the motion.
On June 28, 2023, the ALJ issued the
subject ID (Order No. 27) granting the
motion. See ID at 2; see also id. at 1
(incorrectly referring to the exclusion
order as a general exclusion order rather
than a limited exclusion order). The ID
notes that the motion was filed within
30 days after the resolution of the
appeal, in compliance with Commission
Rule 210.50(d)(1)(ii) (19 CFR
210.50(d)(1)(ii)). See ID at 2. The ID also
finds ‘‘no reason to deny Chamberlain’s
request for the return of bond.’’ See id.
No petition for review of the subject ID
was filed.
The Commission has determined not
to review the subject ID. The bond is
returned to Chamberlain. The bond
return proceeding is terminated.
The Commission’s vote on this
determination took place on July 20,
2023.
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: July 20, 2023.
Lisa Barton,
Secretary to the Commission.
