General Counsel, U.S. International

Trade Commission, 500 E Street, SW.,

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On

February 2, 1994, the presiding

administrative law judge (ALJ) issued

his final ID in this investigation. The

ALJ determined that no violation of

section 337 of the Tariff Act of 1930, as

amended, has occurred in the

importation or sale of certain diltiazem

hydrochloride and diltiazem

preparations by reason of infringement

of claim 1 of U.S. Letters Patent

4,438,035. Under Commission interim

rule 210.53(h), the ID would have

become the determination of the

Commission on March 20, 1995, unless

review was ordered or the review

deadline extended.

On February 6, 1995, complainants

Tanabe Seiyaku Co., Ltd. and Marion

Merrell Dow, Inc. filed a letter

requesting a six-day extension of time—

from February 15, 1995, until February

21, 1995—to file a petition for review of

the ID. On February 7, respondents

Mylan Pharmaceuticals, Inc., Mylan

Laboratories, Inc., and Profarmaco

Nobel LRL submitted a letter taking no

position on complainants’ request for an

extension of time, but requesting, in the

event the Commission grants

complainants’ request, a six-day

extension of time—from February 28,

1995 to March 6, 1995—to file their

response to complainants’ petition for

review. A similar request was made on

February 8, 1995, by the Fermion

respondents.

This action is taken under the

authority of section 337 of the Tariff Act

of 1930 (19 U.S.C. 1337) and

Commission interim rule 210.53(h) (19

CFR 210.53(h)).

of the ID and all other nonconfidential

documents filed in connection with this

investigation are or will be available for

inspection during official business

INTERNATIONAL TRADE

COMMISSION

[Investigation No. 337–TA–366]

Notice of Commission Determination

To Take No Action Concerning the

Presiding Administrative Law Judge’s

Withdrawal of an Initial Determination

Designating the Investigation ‘‘More

Complicated’’

AGENCY: International Trade

Commission.

ACTION: Notice.

In the matter of Certain Microsphere

Adhesives, Process for Making Same, and

Products Containing Same, Including SelfStick Repositionable Notes.

SUMMARY: Notice is hereby given that

the U.S. International Trade

Commission has determined to take no

action concerning a decision (Order No.

28) by the presiding administrative law

judge (ALJ) in the above-captioned

investigation which withdraws an

earlier initial determination (ID)

designating the investigation ‘‘more

complicated.’’ Order No. 28 states that

the investigation may be designated

‘‘more complicated’’ at a later date if it

appears that the current March 8, 1995,

deadline for issuance of the ALJ’s final

ID cannot be met.

ADDRESSES: Copies of Order No. 28 and

all other non-confidential documents

filed in connection with this

investigation are available for inspection

during official business hours (8:45 a.m.

to 5:15 p.m.) in the Office of the

Secretary, U.S. International Trade

Commission, 500 E Street SW.,

Washington, DC 20436, telephone (202)

205–2000.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Jean

Jackson, Esq., Office of the General

Counsel, U.S. International Trade

Commission, telephone 202–205–3104.

Hearing-impaired individuals are

advised that information on this matter

can be obtained by contacting the

Commission’s TDD terminal on 202–

205–1810.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On

January 10, 1995, the ALJ issued an ID

(Order No. 26) which designated the

investigation ‘‘more complicated.’’ The

ID stated that the investigation’s current

schedule did not afford adequate time

for the ALJ to read post-hearing briefs

and write the final ID on violation. At

the time that Order No. 26 was issued,

the ALJ contemplated a supplemental

evidentiary hearing on January 23, 1995.

That hearing was scheduled at the

request of complainant Minnesota

Mining and Manufacturing Co. (3M) and

was to focus on whether respondent

Print-Inform GmbH & Co. infringed 3M’s

patent in issue. The ID also based its

‘‘more complicated’’ designation on the

complex nature of the chemical

processes at issue in the investigation.

On January 17, 1995, complainant 3M

moved for reconsideration and reversal

of Order No. 26, stating that it no longer

wished a supplemental hearing. 3M

urged that the investigation not be

designated ‘‘more complicated’’ because

of the short length of time remaining in

the term of its patent at issue. 3M’s

motion was unopposed by any party

and was supported by the Commission

investigative attorney. On January 20,

1995, the ALJ issued Order No. 28

which grants 3M’s motion to the extent

that it withdraws the ‘‘more

complicated’’ designation. However,

Order No. 28 states that the ALJ may

designate the investigation ‘‘more

complicated’’ at a later date if she

encounters difficulty in completing the

final ID by the current March 8, 1995,

deadline.

This action is taken under the

authority of section 337 of the Tariff Act

of 1930 (19 U.S.C. 1337).

Issued: February 10, 1995.

By order of the Commission.

Donna R. Koehnke,

Secretary.
