Commission Declines Review of ID Partially Terminating Inv. No. 337-TA-685

The Commission has declined review of ALJ Gildea's June 17, 2010 Order granting Complainant Murata Manufacturing's motion to terminate Inv. No. 337-TA-685, Certain Ceramic Capacitors and Products Containing Same, with respect to U.S. Patent No. 6,377,439.  ALJ Gildea granted Murata's motion (filed just two days earlier on June 15, 2010) after concluding that there were no extraordinary circumstances which would prevent the partial withdrawal of the '439 patent and that such a withdrawal will result in the conservation of public and private resources, and the Commission's notice, dated July 7, states that no party requested review of the ALJ's initial determination.
