The International Trade Administration published notices in the Sept. 6 Federal Register on the following AD/CV proceedings (any notices that announce changes to AD/CV duty rates, scope, affected firms, or effective dates will be detailed in another ITT article):
The International Trade Administration issued the preliminary results of its administrative review of the antidumping duty order on light-walled rectangular pipe and tube from Mexico (A-201-836) for two companies, both of which preliminarily received zero AD rates. These preliminary results are not in effect. The ITA may modify them in the final results of this review and change the estimated AD cash deposit rate for these companies.
An administrative law judge found no violation of Section 337 by imports of Nintendo video game systems and wireless controllers and components thereof (337-TA-770). Creative Kingdoms and New Kingdoms requested the International Trade Commission patent investigation, which was instituted April 20, 2011.
The International Trade Commission said it will review part of an administrative law judge’s finding of violation of Section 337 by imports of certain companies’ cellphone and tablet protective cases. In the ITC’s patent investigation of certain protective cases and components thereof (337-TA-780), the ALJ found that cellphone and tablet protective cases made by Griffin and 18 defaulting respondents1 infringed patents and trademarks held by Otter Products, and that the infringement constituted violations of Section 337. With respect to Tennessee-based Griffin, the ALJ said its “survivor” cases for the iPhone 2 and “explorer” cases for the iPhone 4 infringe an Otter patent, but Griffin’s “survivor” cases for the iPhone 4 and iPod Touch do not literally infringe. The ITC said it will review only the ALJ’s determination that Griffin’s “survivor” case for the iPod Touch doesn’t literally infringe an Otter patent.
