SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
This investigation was instituted on January 3, 2008, based on a complaint filed by Seoul Semiconductor Company, Ltd. ("SSC") of Seoul, Korea. The complaint, as supplemented, alleged violations of section 337 of the Tariff Act of 1930 (19 U.S.C. 1337) in the importation into the United States, the sale for importation, and the sale within the United States after importation of short wavelength semiconductor lasers and products containing the same that infringe claim 1 of U.S. Patent No. 5,321,713. The complaint initially named Nichia Corporation ("Nichia") of Tokushima, Japan as the sole respondent. Subsequently, five additional respondents were added to the investigation.
On May 27, 2008, the administrative law judge ("ALJ") issued Order No. 8, requesting that the parties submit a proposed target date and proposed schedules in response to Order No. 6, which added the five additional respondents mentioned above. Upon receipt and consideration of the submissions received, the ALJ issued the subject ID on June 13, 2008, extending the target date from August 24, 2009, to September 14, 2009. No petitions for review were filed. The Commission has determined not to review the ID.
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 sections 210.42 and 210.51 of the Commission's Rules of Practice and Procedure (19 CFR 210.42, 210.51).
By order of the Commission:
Issued: July 9, 2008.
