Notice is hereby given that a complaint was filed with the U.S. International Trade Commission on June 8, 2010, under section 337 of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended, on behalf of Crocs, Inc. of Broomfield, Colorado. Supplements to the complaint were filed on June 10, June 17, June 23, and June 28, 2021. The complaint, as corrected and supplemented, alleges violations of section 337 based upon the importation into the United States, the sale for importation, and the sale within the United States after importation of certain casual footwear and packaging thereof by reason of infringement of one or more of U.S. Trademark Registration No. 3,836,415 (``the '415 mark''); U.S. Trademark Registration No. 5,149,328 (``the '328 mark''); and U.S. Trademark Registration No. 5,273,875 (``the '875 mark'') (collectively, ``Asserted Trademarks''), and that an industry in the United States exists as required by the applicable Federal Statute. The complaint, as corrected and supplemented, further alleges violations of section 337 based upon the importation into the United States, or in the sale of certain casual footwear and packaging thereof, by reason of false designation of source or trademark dilution, the threat or effect of which is to destroy or substantially injure an industry in the United States. The complainant requests that the Commission institute an investigation and, after the investigation, issue a general exclusion order, or in the alternative a limited exclusion order, and cease and desist orders.
