SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The 

Commission instituted this investigation 

on May 5, 2022, based on a complaint 

filed on behalf of Medytox Inc. of the 

Republic of Korea (‘‘Medytox’’). 87 FR 

26782, 26873 (May 5, 2022). The 

complaint alleged violations of 

subsection (a)(1)(A) of section 337 based 

on the importation into the United 

States or the sale of certain botulinum 

toxin products and processes for 

manufacturing or relating to the same by 

reason of theft and conversion and 

misappropriation of trade secrets, the 

threat or effect of which is to destroy or 

substantially injure an industry in the 

United States. Id. The notice of 

investigation named as respondents 

Hugel, Inc. of the Republic of Korea; 

Hugel America, Inc. of Irvine, California 

(together, ‘‘Hugel’’); and Croma Pharma 

GmbH of Leobendorf, Austria (‘‘Croma,’’ 

and together with Hugel, 

‘‘Respondents’’). Id. The Office of Unfair 

Import Investigations (‘‘OUII’’) is 

participating in this investigation. Id. 

On February 6, 2024, the investigation 

was terminated as to Medytox’s 

misappropriation of trade secrets 

allegations. Order No. 39 (Jan. 22, 2024), 

unreviewed by Comm’n Notice, (Feb. 6, 

2024). 

On June 10, 2024, the ALJ issued the 

Final ID. On June 24, 2024, Medytox 

filed a petition for Commission review 

of the Final ID that also included a 

request for oral argument, and 

Respondents filed a contingent petition 

for Commission review of the Final ID. 

On July 2, 2024, or July 8, 2024, the 

parties filed responses to the petitions. 

On July 10, 2024, the private parties 

filed their public interest statements 

pursuant to 19 CFR 210.50(a)(4). Issues 

not raised in the petitions for review are 

deemed to have been abandoned 

(including Respondents’ assertion in 

their public interest statement but 

omitted from their petition for review 

that Medytox’s alleged unfair act of 

conversion lacks a nexus to importation 

of the accused products). See 19 CFR 

210.43. 

Having reviewed the record of the 

investigation, including the Final ID, the 

parties’ submissions to the ALJ, and the 

petitions for review and responses 

thereto, the Commission has determined 

to review the Final ID in part. 

Specifically, the Commission has 

determined to review the Final ID’s 

findings and conclusions regarding 

jurisdiction, conversion, importation, 

and the domestic industry and injury 

requirements. The Commission has 

determined not to review the remainder 

of the Final ID. 

On review, the Commission modifies 

the Final ID’s finding that the 

Commission has jurisdiction over this 

investigation by clarifying that the 

Commission has statutory authority. 

Additionally, the Commission affirms, 

with modifications, the Final ID’s 

conclusion that Medytox did not show 

by a preponderance of the evidence that 

Respondents converted Medytox’s 

property. 

Further, the Commission takes no 

position on whether Medytox satisfied 

the domestic industry and injury 

requirements and whether Medytox 

satisfied the importation requirement. 

The Commission issues its opinion 

herewith setting forth its reasoning. The 

Commission has also determined to 

deny the complainant’s request for oral

Federal Register / Vol. 89, No. 201 / Thursday, October 17, 2024 / Notices 83701 

argument. This investigation is 

terminated. 

The Commission vote for this 

determination took place on October 10, 

2024. 

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 Part 

210 of the Commission’s Rules of 

Practice and Procedure (19 CFR part 

210). 

By order of the Commission. 

Issued: October 10, 2024. 

Lisa Barton, 

Secretary to the Commission.

Conec, Ltd., of Hickory, North Carolina 

(‘‘US Conec’’). 89 FR 32459–60 (Apr. 26, 

2024). The complaint alleged violations 

of section 337 of the Tariff Act of 1930, 

as amended, 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

connectors, adapters, jump cables, patch 

cords, products containing the same, 

and components thereof that infringe 

certain claims of U.S. Patent Nos. 

11,733,466; 11,808,994; 11,906,794; 

11,880,075; 11,385,415 and 10,495,823. 

Id. at 32459. The complaint also alleged 

that a domestic industry exists. Id. The 

Commission’s notice of investigation 

names as respondents Senko Advance 

Co., Ltd. of Yokkaichi City, Japan and 

Senko Advanced Components, Inc. of 

Hudson, Massachusetts (‘‘the Senko 

Respondents’’); Eaton Corp. of Dublin, 

Ireland; Tripp Lite Holdings, Inc. of 

Woodridge, Illinois; FS.com Inc. of New 

Castle, Delaware (‘‘FS.com’’); Infinite

Industries, Ltd. of Osaka, Japan, 

Sumitomo Electric Lightwave Corp. of

Electric U.S.A., Inc. of Torrance, 

California (together, ‘‘Sumitomo’’); 

EZconn Corp. of New Taipei City, 

Taiwan; Flexoptix GmbH of Darmstadt, 

Germany; Shenzhen UnitekFiber 

Solution Ltd. of Shenzhen, China; 

Hubbell Inc. of Shelton, Connecticut; 

Hubbell Premise Wiring, Inc. of Shelton, 

Connecticut; Shenzhen IH Optics Co., 

Ltd. of Shenzhen, China; Rayoptic 

Communication Co., Ltd., of Shenzhen, 

China; and HuNan Surfiber Technology 

Co., Ltd. of Changsha, China. Id. at 

32460. The Office of Unfair Import 

Investigations (‘‘OUII’’) is participating 

in this investigation. Id. 

The Commission previously 

terminated the investigation in part 

based on the entry of consent orders 

with respect to the following 

respondents: FS.com Inc., Order No. 15 

(Jun. 25, 2024), unreviewed by Comm’n 

Notice (Jul. 24, 2024); Shenzhen IH 

Optics Co., Ltd., Order No. 16 (Jun. 26, 

2024), unreviewed by Comm’n Notice 

(Jul. 24, 2024); Flexoptix GmbH, Order 

No. 17 (Jun. 26, 2024), unreviewed by 

Comm’n Notice (Jul. 24, 2024). The 

Commission also previously terminated 

the investigation in part based on 

settlement with respect to Sumitomo. 

Sumitomo, Order No. 21 (Jul. 15, 2024), 

unreviewed by Comm’n Notice (Aug. 8, 

2024). 

The Commission further previously 

terminated the investigation in part 

based on US Conec’s withdrawal of the 

complaint with respect to the following 

respondents: Hubbell Inc., Hubbell 

Premise Wiring, Inc., EZconn Corp., 

Changzhou Co-Net Electronic 

Technology Co., Ltd., Shenzhen 

UnitekFiber Solution Ltd., Rayoptic 

Communication Co., Ltd., HuNan 

Surfiber Technology Co., Ltd., Eaton 

Corp., Tripp Lite Holdings, Inc., Infinite 

Electronics, Inc., and L-Com, LLC. Order 

No. 33 (Sept. 3, 2024), unreviewed by 

Comm’n Notice (Oct. 3, 2024). 

On July 9, 2024, US Conec filed a 

motion for leave to amend the 

complaint and notice of investigation to 

add three respondents: Protai Photonic 

Co., Ltd., Jarllytec Co., Ltd., and 

Wave2Wave Solutions Corp. d/b/a 

FiberSmart. The ALJ issued Order No. 

27 granting the motion to allow US 

Conec to amend its complaint. Order 

No. 27 (Jul. 31, 2024), unreviewed by 

Comm’n Notice (Aug. 16, 2024). But 

while US Conec was granted leave to 

amend its complaint, US Conec never 

filed an amended complaint. Therefore, 

Protai Photonic Co., Ltd., Jarllytec Co., 

Ltd., and Wave2Wave Solutions Corp. 

d/b/a FiberSmart were not added to the 

investigation as respondents. 

On September 23, 2024, US Conec 

and the Senko Respondents jointly 

moved to terminate the investigation 

with respect to the Senko Respondents 

based on settlement. That same day, 

OUII filed a response in support of the 

motion. No other party responded to the 

motion. 

On July 15, 2024, the ALJ issued the 

subject ID granting the motion and 

terminating the investigation with 

respect to the Senko Respondents based 

on settlement pursuant to Commission 

Rule 210.21(b)(1) (19 CFR 210.21(b)(1)). 

Because the Senko Respondents were 

the last remaining respondents in the 

investigation, the ID also terminates the 

investigation in its entirety. No petitions 

for review of the subject ID were 

received. 

The Commission has determined not 

to review the subject ID. This 

investigation is hereby terminated. 

The Commission vote for this 

determination took place on October 11, 

2024. 

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 part 

210 of the Commission’s Rules of 

Practice and Procedure (19 CFR part 

210). 

By order of the Commission.
