SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION

Sunshine Act Meeting

    Notice is hereby given, pursuant to the provisions of the 
Government in the Sunshine Act, Public Law 94-409, that the Securities 
and Exchange Commission will hold an Open Meeting on July 14, 2011 at 
10.m., in the Auditorium, Room L-002, to hear oral argument in an 
appeal by Comverse Technology, Inc. from an initial decision of an 
administrative law judge.
    Comverse is a New York corporation that provides a variety of 
services in the telecommunications industry through its subsidiaries. 
Comverse's common stock is registered with the Commission pursuant to 
Section 12(g) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.
    On July 22, 2010, the law judge issued his decision finding that 
Comverse had violated Securities Exchange Act Section 13(a) and 
Exchange Act Rules 13a-1 and 13a-13 by failing to file quarterly and 
annual reports for any period after October 31, 2005. The law judge 
revoked the registration of Comverse's common stock. Subsequent to the 
issuance of the law judge's decision, Comverse has filed certain annual 
and quarterly reports.
    Comverse does not appeal the law judge's findings of violation but, 
rather, the law judge's determination to revoke its registration. 
Exchange Act Section 12(j) authorizes sanctions, including revocation, 
for reporting violations where it is ``necessary or appropriate for the 
protection of investors.'' Issues likely to be considered at oral 
argument include the extent to which, under the circumstances, 
sanctions are warranted.
    Commissioner Paredes, as duty officer, determined that no earlier 
notice thereof was possible.
    For further information, please contact the Office of the Secretary 
at (202) 551-5400.
    At times, changes in Commission priorities require alterations in 
the scheduling of meeting items.

     July 12, 2011.
Elizabeth M. Murphy,
Secretary.
