In the Matter of Certain Notebook Computer Products and

Initial Determination Correcting the Claims Asserted From U.S. Patent 
No. 7,156,693 in the Complaint and Notice of Investigation

AGENCY: U.S. International Trade Commission.

ACTION: Notice.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: Notice is hereby given that the U.S. International Trade 
Commission has determined not to review an initial determination 
(``ID'') (Order No. 6) issued by the presiding administrative law judge 
(``ALJ'') in the above-referenced investigation correcting the claims 
asserted from U.S. Patent 7,156,693 (``the '693 patent'') in the 
complaint and notice of investigation.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Commission instituted this investigation 
on February 24, 2010, based on a complaint filed by Toshiba Corporation 
of Japan (``Toshiba''). 75 FR 8400. The complaint alleges 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 notebook 
computer products and components thereof by reason of infringement of 
the '693 patent and U.S. Patent No. 5,430,867. The complaint names 
three respondents.
    On March 8, 2010, Toshiba moved to amend the complaint and notice 
of investigation to correct the claims asserted from the '693 patent. 
In particular, Toshiba's motion indicates that claim 7 was erroneously 
identified instead of claim 4. Neither the Commission Investigative 
Attorney nor any of the respondents opposed this motion.
    On March 9, 2010, the ALJ issued the subject ID correcting the 
claims asserted from the `693 patent to include claims 1, 2, 4, 5, 9, 
15-17, and 20-22. No petitions for review of the ID were filed.
    The Commission has determined not to review the ALJ's 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 section 210.42 of the Commission's Rules of Practice and Procedure 
(19 CFR 210.42).

    Issued: March 31, 2010.

    By order of the Commission.
Marilyn R. Abbott,
Secretary to the Commission.
