thereto filed by Proven Networks, LLC of Los Angeles, California
(``Complainant''). 86 FR 44746-47 (Aug. 13, 2021). The complaint, as
supplemented, alleged violations of section 337 of the Tariff Act of
1930, as amended, 19 U.S.C. 1337, based upon the importation, sale for
importation, and sale in the United States after importation of certain
networking devices, computers, and components thereof that allegedly
infringe certain claims of U.S. Patent No. 8,687,573. Id. The complaint
further alleged that an industry in the United States exists, or is in
the process of being established, as required by section 337. Id. The
notice of investigation named F5 Networks Inc. of Seattle, Washington
as the respondent. Id. at 44747. The Office of Unfair Import

On December 2, 2021, the private parties filed a joint unopposed
motion to terminate the investigation on the basis of settlement. The
parties represented that ``there are no other agreements, written or
oral, express or implied, between the Parties regarding the subject
matter of this proceeding.''
On December 3, 2021, the presiding administrative law judge issued
Order No. 11, granting the joint motion to terminate the investigation
on the basis of settlement. The ID found that the motion complies with
the requirements
[[Page 73316]]
of Commission Rule 210.21 (19 CFR 210.21(a), (b)) and that there is no
evidence that indicates that termination would adversely affect the
public interest. No party filed a petition for review of the ID.
The Commission has determined not to review this ID. Accordingly,
the investigation is terminated.
The Commission vote for this determination took place on December
20, 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

part 210).
