SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On April 18, 2025, the Commission instituted
this investigation based on a complaint filed by Credo Semiconductor
Inc. of San Jose, California and Credo Technology Group Ltd. of the
Cayman Islands (collectively, ``Credo''). 90 FR 16551 (Apr. 18, 2025).
The complaint alleged violations of section 337 of the Tariff Act of
1930, as amended, 19 U.S.C. 1337, based upon the importation into the
United States, the sale for importation, and the sale within the United
States after importation of certain active electrical cables and
components thereof by reason of the infringement of certain claims of
U.S. Patent Nos. 10,877,233; 11,012,252; and 11,032,111. Id. The
Commission's notice of investigation named the following respondents:
Amphenol Corporation of Wallingford, Connecticut; Molex, LLC of Lisle,
Illinois; and TE Connectivity PLC of Galway, Ireland (``TE PLC''). Id.
at 16552. The Office of Unfair Import Investigations is a party to this
investigation. Id.
On May 23, 2025, Credo moved for leave to amend the complaint and
notice of investigation to terminate TE PLC and add TE Connectivity
Corporation of Berwyn, Pennsylvania (``TECC'') as a respondent. The
motion was unopposed. The motion explained that good cause existed for
the substitution of respondents, because TECC is the operating company
responsible for importation and sale of accused products, and TE PLC is
a holding company without such responsibility.
On May 28, 2025, the ALJ issued the subject ID (Order No. 7)
pursuant to Commission Rules 210.14(b)(1) and 210.21(a), 19 CFR
210.14(b)(1) and 19 CFR 210.21(a). The ID explains that good cause
exists for the substitution of respondents because Credo did not know
about TECC's role until discovery commenced. The ID also finds that
there will be no prejudice to TECC or to the public interest.
No petitions for Commission review of the ID were filed. The
Commission has determined not to review the ID.
The Commission vote for this determination took place on June 20,
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: June 26, 2025.
Lisa Barton,
Secretary to the Commission.
