# SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

The Commission instituted this investigation on July 16, 2001, based on a complaint filed by The Chamberlain Group, Inc. against six entities: Linear Corporation, Napoleon Spring Works, Inc., Lynx Industries, Inc., Innovative Home Products, Inc., Wayne-Dalton Corporation, and Guardian Access Corporation. 66 FR 37704 (2001). Computime Limited was later added as a respondent. The complaint alleges violations of section 337 of the Tariff Act of 1930 in the importation into the United States, the sale for importation, and/or the sale within the United States after importation of certain garage door operators by reason of infringement of certain claims of complainant's U.S. Letters Patents Nos. Re. 35,364 and Re. 36,703. 

On September 21, 2001, complainant filed a motion for leave to amend the complaint and notice of investigation to add Martec Access Products, Inc. as a respondent. On October 2, 2001, the Commission investigative attorney filed a response in support of complainant's motion to amend. On October 15, 2001, respondent Wayne-Dalton Corporation (“Wayne-Dalton”) filed a motion to strike complainant's motion to amend. On October 25, 2001, complainant filed a response to Wayne-Dalton's motion to strike complainant's motion to amend. On October 31, 2001, Wayne-Dalton filed a motion for leave to reply to complainant's response to Wayne-Dalton's motion. 

On November 26, 2001, the ALJ granted complainant's motion to amend in the subject ID. On the same day the ALJ denied respondent's motion to strike. 

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  § 210.42 of the Commission's rules of practice and procedure (19 CFR 210.42). 

Issued: December 13, 2001. 

By order of the Commission.
