SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The 

Commission instituted this investigation 

on May 30, 2008, based on a complaint 

filed by John Mezzalingua Associates, 

Inc., d/b/a PPC, Inc. of East Syracuse, 

New York (‘‘PPC’’). 73 FR 31145 (May 

30, 2008). The complaint alleged 

violations of section 337 of the Tariff 

Act of 1930 (19 U.S.C. 1337) (‘‘Section 

337’’) in the importation into the United 

States, the sale for importation, and the 

sale within the United States after 

importation of certain coaxial cable 

connectors and components thereof and 

products containing the same by reason 

of infringement of various patents, 

including U.S. Patent No. 6,558,194 

(‘‘the ‘194 patent’’). The notice of 

institution named eight respondents. 

After institution, two respondents were 

terminated based on consent orders and 

four respondents were found to be in 

default (‘‘defaulting respondents’’). Two 

respondents, Fu-Ching Technical 

Industry, Co., Ltd., and Gem Electronics, 

Inc., remained active. 

On October 13, 2009, the 

Administrative Law Judge (‘‘ALJ’’) 

issued his final initial determination 

(‘‘ID’’) and recommended determination 

on remedy and bonding. The ALJ found 

a violation of section 337 by the 

defaulting respondents in connection 

with the ‘194 patent. On December 14, 

2009, the Commission determined to 

review the final ID in part, but the 

Commission did not review the ALJ’s 

determination with respect to the ‘194 

patent. The Commission issued a 

general exclusion order on March 31, 

2010 with respect to the ‘194 patent 

based on a finding of violation of 

Section 337 by the defaulting 

respondents. 

On September 12, 2011, nonrespondent, Holland Electronics, LLC 

(‘‘Holland’’) filed a request for an 

advisory opinion under Commission 

Rule 210.79 (19 CFR 210.79) that would 

declare that its coaxial cable connectors, 

utilizing an axial but not radial 

compression for deformation, are 

outside of the scope of the 

Commission’s March 31, 2010 general 

exclusion order. Holland further 

requested that the Commission conduct 

all proceedings related to the advisory 

opinion in an expedited manner and not 

refer the matter to an administrative law 

judge (ALJ). 

On October 31, 2011, the Commission 

determined to institute an advisory 

opinion proceeding based on Holland’s 

request. 76 FR 68504 (November 4, 

2011). The Commission directed PPC 

and the Commission Investigative 

Attorney (‘‘IA’’) to state their views 

regarding whether they oppose 

Holland’s request for an advisory 

opinion that its subject connectors are 

not covered by the March 31, 2010, 

general exclusion order, and if so, 

whether they believe the matter should 

be referred to an ALJ. Id. On November 

11, 2011, PPC filed a response in 

support of Holland’s request for an 

advisory opinion. On November 14, 

2011, the IA also filed a response in 

support of Holland’s request. Both PPC 

and the IA stated that it was not 

necessary to refer this matter to the ALJ. 

The Commission has reviewed the 

parties’ submissions and has 

determined to grant Holland’s request 

for an advisory opinion that its products 

embodying the design set forth in 

Exhibit H to Holland’s advisory opinion 

request, and specifically the products 

listed in Exhibit I to Holland’s request 

that embody that design, are not covered 

by the Commission’s general exclusion 

order issued on March 31, 2010. 

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 210.79(a) of the Commission’s 

Rules of Practice and Procedure (19 CFR 

210.79(a)). 

By order of the Commission. 

Issued: February 9, 2012.

Secretary to the Commission.
