United States, the sale for importation, or the sale within the United
States after importation of certain urine splash guards and components

this investigation. Id.
On April 1, 2025, the Commission determined not to review three
initial determinations (Order Nos. 5, 6, and 7)
[[Page 17615]]
granting Complainant's unopposed motions to terminate the investigation
as to respondents Eurbus, Sunyoka123, and SeLucky based on settlement.
See Order Nos. 5, 6, and 7 (March 11, 2025), unreviewed by Comm'n
Notice (April 1, 2025).
On February 6, 2025, Complainant filed an unopposed motion to
terminate Tigaman from the investigation based on settlement. On
February 18, 2025, OUII filed a response in support of Complainant's
motion. On March 11, 2025, the ALJ issued Order No. 8, requesting
clarification regarding slight differences in Tigaman's name and
address in the Complaint and Notice of Investigation and the settlement
agreement attached to the motion to terminate. Complainant filed a
response with additional information on March 18, 2025. OUII filed a
response again supporting termination on March 27, 2025.
On March 18, 2025, Complainant filed an unopposed motion to
terminate Junyxin from the investigation based on settlement. On March
27, 2025, OUII filed a response in support of Complainant's motion.
On April 1, 2025, the ALJ issued the subject IDs (Order Nos. 10 and
11), granting Complainant's unopposed motions to terminate the
investigation as to Tigaman and Junyxin. Order No. 11 also amends the
Notice of Investigation to correctly identify the address of Respondent
Junyxin as: Room 205, No. 183 Dongshanli, Dong'an Jimei District,
Xiamen City, China. The subject IDs find that the motions meet the
requirements of Commission Rules 210.21(b) and 210.50(b)(2) (19 CFR
210.21(b), 210.50(b)(2)), and that there are no extraordinary
circumstances that would prevent the requested partial termination of
the investigation. The subject IDs also grant Complainant's unopposed
request to limit service of he unredacted versions of the settlement
agreements. No petitions for review of the IDs were filed.
The Commission has determined not to review the subject IDs. The
Notice of Investigation is amended to correctly identify the address of
Respondent Junyxin as: Room 205, No. 183 Dongshanli, Dong'an Jimei
District, Xiamen City, China. Tigaman and Junyxin are terminated from
the investigation.
The Commission vote for this determination took place on April 21,
2025.
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 Practice and Procedure (19 CFR
part 210).
By order of the Commission.
Issued: April 22, 2025.
Lisa Barton,
Secretary to the Commission.
