INTERNATIONAL TRADE 

COMMISSION 

[Investigation No. 731–TA–1527 (Final)] 

Standard Steel Welded Wire Mesh 

From Mexico 

Determination 

On the basis of the record 1 developed 

in the subject investigation, the United 

States International Trade Commission 

(‘‘Commission’’) determines, pursuant 

to the Tariff Act of 1930 (‘‘the Act’’), 

that an industry in the United States is 

materially injured by reason of imports 

of standard steel welded wire mesh 

from Mexico, provided for in 

subheadings 7314.20.00 and 7314.39.00 

of the Harmonized Tariff Schedule of 

the United States, that have been found 

by the U.S. Department of Commerce 

(‘‘Commerce’’) to be sold in the United 

States at less than fair value (‘‘LTFV’’).2

Background 

The Commission, pursuant to section 

735(b) of the Act (19 U.S.C. 1673d(b)), 

instituted antidumping and 

countervailing duty investigations 

effective June 30, 2020, following 

receipt of petitions filed with the 

Commission and Commerce by Insteel 

Industries Inc., Mount Airy, North 

Carolina; Mid-South Wire Company, 

Nashville, Tennessee; National Wire 

LLC, Conroe, Texas; Oklahoma Steel & 

Wire Co., Madill, Oklahoma; and Wire 

Mesh Corp., Houston, Texas. Effective 

December 3, 2020, the Commission 

established a general schedule for the 

conduct of the final phase of its 

investigations on standard steel welded 

wire mesh, following a preliminary 

determination by Commerce that 

imports of the subject standard steel 

welded wire mesh were subsidized by 

the government of Mexico. Notice of the 

scheduling of the final phase of the

Commission’s investigations and of a 

public hearing to be held in connection 

therewith was given by posting copies 

of the notice in the Office of the 

Secretary, U.S. International Trade 

Commission, Washington, DC, and by 

publishing the notice in the Federal 

Register of December 16, 2020 (85 FR 

81487). In light of the restrictions on 

access to the Commission building due 

to the COVID–19 pandemic, the 

Commission conducted its hearing 

through written testimony and video 

conference on February 12, 2021. All 

persons who requested the opportunity 

were permitted to participate. 

The investigation schedules became 

staggered when Commerce did not align 

its countervailing duty investigation 

with its antidumping duty investigation, 

and reached an earlier final 

countervailing duty determination. In 

April 2021, the Commission issued a 

final affirmative determination in its 

countervailing duty investigation of 

standard steel welded wire mesh from 

Mexico (86 FR 18555, April 9, 2021). 

Following notification of a final 

determination by Commerce that 

imports of standard steel welded wire 

mesh from Mexico were being sold at 

LTFV within the meaning of section 

735(b) of the Act (19 U.S.C. 1673d(a)), 

notice of the supplemental scheduling 

of the final phase of the Commission’s 

antidumping duty investigation was 

given by posting copies of the notice in 

the Office of the Secretary, U.S. 

International Trade Commission, 

Washington, DC, and by publishing the 

notice in the Federal Register of July 1, 

2021 (86 FR 35124). 

The Commission made this 

determination pursuant to section 

735(b) of the Act (19 U.S.C. 1673d(b)). 

It completed and filed its determination 

in this investigation on July 30, 2021. 

The views of the Commission are 

contained in USITC Publication 5217 

(July 2021), entitled Standard Steel 

Welded Wire Mesh from Mexico: 

Investigation No. 731–TA–1527 (Final).

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On March

by Samsung Electronics Co., Ltd. of 

Republic of Korea and Samsung Austin 

Semiconductor, LLC of Austin, Texas

sale for importation, or the sale within 

the United States after importation of 

certain semiconductor devices, wireless 

infrastructure equipment containing the 

same, and components thereof by reason 

of infringement of claims 1–4 and 6–20 

of U.S. Patent No. 9,748,243; claims 1– 

15 of U.S. Patent No. 9,018,697; claims 

1–3, 6–8, 10–14, 16, 19, 20, 23, 24, and 

26–29 of U.S. Patent No. 9,048,219; and

Patent No. 9,761,719. Id. The 

Commission’s notice of investigation 

named as respondents, Ericsson AB and 

Telefonaktiebolaget LM Ericsson both of 

Stockholm, Sweden, and Ericsson Inc. 

of Plano, Texas (collectively, 

‘‘Ericsson’’). Id. The notice of

Unfair Import Investigations as a party. 

Id. 

On May 14, 2021, Samsung and 

Ericsson filed a joint motion to 

terminate the investigation in its 

entirety based upon settlement. 

On July 8, 2021, the ALJ issued the 

subject ID (Order No. 7) granting the 

motion. The subject ID found that the 

joint motion complies with Commission 

Rule 210.21(a)(2), which provides that 

‘‘[a]ny party may move at any time to 

terminate an investigation in whole or 

in part as to any or all respondents on 

the basis of a settlement, a licensing or 

other agreement . . . .’’ ID at 1 (citing 

19 CFR 210.21(a)(2)). The ID observed 

that ‘‘Samsung and Ericsson have 

entered into a Global Patent License 

Agreement that includes an agreement 

to terminate this Investigation in its 

entirety,’’ and in accordance with 

Commission Rule 210.21(b)(1) state that 

‘‘[t]here are no other agreements, written 

or oral, expressed or implied between 

Samsung and Ericsson concerning the 

subject matter of this Investigation.’’ ID 

at 1–2 (citing 19 CFR 210.21(b)(1)). In 

addition, the parties provided 

confidential and public versions of the 

settlement agreement. The ID further 

noted that the parties agree that 

termination of this investigation ‘‘will 

not have any adverse effect of the public 

health and welfare and/or competitive 

conditions in the United States’’ and 

that ‘‘[t]ermination will also conserve 

the parties’ respective resources and 

those of the Commission.’’ Id. at 2. No 

one petitioned for review of the ID. 

The Commission has determined not 

to review the subject ID. The 

investigation is hereby terminated in its 

entirety. 

The Commission vote for this 

determination took place on July 30, 

2021. 

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
