complaint alleges violations of section 337 of the Tariff Act of 1930,
19 U.S.C. 1337, based upon the importation into the United States, the
sale for importation, and the sale within the United States after
importation of certain wireless communications system server software,

ALJ to terminate the investigation on the basis of a settlement
agreement. A copy of their settlement agreement is attached to the
joint motion. On June 24, 2010, the Commission investigative attorney
(``IA'') filed a response supporting the parties' motion. On June 29,
2010, the ALJ issued the subject ID granting the joint motion to
terminate. No petitions for review were filed.
The Commission has determined not to review the ID. The
investigation is terminated.
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 section 210.42(h) of the Commission's Rules of Practice and
