Section 337 of the Tariff Act of 1930 provides that, if the Commission finds a violation, it shall exclude the articles concerned from the United States unless, after considering the effect of such exclusion upon the public health and welfare, competitive conditions in the United States economy, the production of like or directly competitive articles in the United States, and United States consumers, it finds that such articles should not be excluded from entry. (19 U.S.C. 1337(d)(1)). A similar provision applies to cease and desist orders. (19 U.S.C. 1337(f)(1)).

                    The Commission is soliciting submissions on public interest issues raised by the recommended relief should the Commission find a violation, specifically: a limited exclusion order directed to certain active matrix organic light-emitting diode display panels and modules for mobile devices, and components thereof imported, sold for importation, and/or sold after importation by respondents Injured Gadgets, LLC; Wholesale Gadget Parts, Inc.; Phone LCD Parts LLC; Parts4LCD; Mianyang BOE Optoelectronics Technology Co., Ltd.; Captain Mobile Parts, Inc.; Group Vertical, LLC; Sourcely Plus, LLC; Mengtor Inc.; Electronics Universe, Inc, d/b/a Fixez.com and Repairs Universe, Inc.; LCTech International Inc. d/b/a/                     *SEGMobile.com*; Parts4Cells Inc.; DFW Imports LLC d/b/a DFW Cellphone and Parts; Gadgetfix Corp.; and eTech Parts Plus LLC; and cease and desist orders directed to those same respondents except Mianyang BOE Optoelectronics Technology Co., Ltd.

Accordingly, members of the public and interested government agencies are invited to file submissions of no more than five (5) pages, inclusive of attachments, concerning the public interest in light of the ALJ's Recommended Determination on Remedy and Bonding issued in this investigation on November 15, 2024. Comments should address whether issuance of the recommended remedial orders in this investigation, should the Commission find a violation, would affect the public health and welfare in the United States, competitive conditions in the United States economy, the production of like or directly competitive articles in the United States, or United States consumers.

                    In particular, the Commission is interested in comments that:                          ( print page 92722)

(iv) indicate whether complainant, complainant's licensees, and/or third-party suppliers have the capacity to replace the volume of articles potentially subject to the recommended orders within a commercially reasonable time; and

(v) explain how the recommended orders would impact consumers in the United States.
