SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Commission instituted this investigation on January 28, 2010, based on a complaint filed by Nokia Corporation of Finland and Nokia Inc. of White Plains, New York (collectively, “Nokia”). 75 FR 4583-4 (Jan. 28, 2010). The complaint 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 certain electronic devices, including mobile phones, portable music players, and computers by reason of infringement of various claims of United States Patent Nos. 6,895,256; 6,518,957; 6,714,091; 6,834,181; 6,924,789; 6,073,036; and 6,262,735. The complaint named Apple Inc. of Cupertino, California (“Apple”) as respondent. On March 25, 2011, the ALJ issued his final Initial Determination (“ID”), finding no violation of section 337 by Apple with respect to any of the asserted claims of the pending patents. On May 26, 2011, the Commission determined, upon Nokia's and the Commission investigative attorney's (“IA”) respective petitions and Apple's contingent petition, to review the ID in part, and requested briefing from the parties on the issues under review. 76 FR 31938 (June 2, 2011). On June 9, 2011, the parties submitted their respective briefs on the issues under review. On June 16, 2011, Nokia and Apple filed a joint motion to terminate the investigation on the basis of a settlement agreement. On June 17, 2011, the IA filed a response in support of the motion. Having examined the record of this investigation, the Commission has determined to grant the joint motion to terminate the investigation. 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 210.21 and 210.50 of the Commission's Rules of Practice and Procedure (19 CFR 210.21 and 210.50). By order of the Commission. Issued: July 7, 2011. James R. Holbein, Secretary to the Commission. [FR Doc. 2011-17459 Filed 7-11-11; 8:45 am]
