SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Commission instituted this investigation 
on March 27, 2025, based on a complaint filed by AX Wireless, LLC of 
Austin, Texas (``Complainant''). 90 FR 13879-80 (Mar. 27, 2025). The 
complaint, as supplemented, alleges violations of section 337 of the 
Tariff Act of 1930, as amended, 19 U.S.C. 1337, in the importation into 
the United States, the sale for importation, or the sale within the 
United States after importation of certain video game consoles, routers 
and gateways, and components thereof by reason of the infringement of 
certain claims of U.S. Patent Nos. 10,917,272; 11,646,927; 11,777,776; 
and 12,063,134. Id. The complaint further alleges that a domestic 
industry exists. Id. The Commission's notice of investigation names 
four respondents, including: Sony Interactive Entertainment Inc. of 
Tokyo, Japan and Sony Interactive Entertainment LLC of San Mateo, 
California (collectively, ``Sony''); Vantiva SA of Paris, France; and 
Vantiva USA, LLC of Norcross, Georgia. Id. The Office of Unfair Import 
Investigations (``OUII'') is participating in the investigation. Id.
    The Commission previously terminated Vantiva SA and Vantiva USA, 
LLC based on settlement. Order No. 20 (Aug. 28, 2025), unreviewed by 
Comm'n Notice (Sept. 18, 2025).
    On September 25, 2025, Complainant filed an unopposed motion for 
termination of this investigation in its entirety based on a settlement 
agreement between Complainant and Sony. On September 26, 2025, 
Complainant filed a corrected version of its motion that attached the 
settlement, which was inadvertently not attached to the original 
motion. On September 29, 2025, OUII filed a response in support of the 
motion. No other responses to the motion were filed.
    On September 29, 2025, the presiding ALJ issued the subject ID 
granting the unopposed motion to terminate the investigation in its 
entirety. See Order No. 24 (Sept. 29, 2025). The subject ID finds that 
the motion complies with Commission Rule 210.21(b)(1) (19 CFR 
210.21(b)) and that no extraordinary circumstances prevent granting the 
motion. The subject ID also finds that termination based on settlement 
would not be contrary to the public interest.
    No party petitioned for review of the subject ID.
    The Commission has determined not to review the subject ID (Order 
No. 24). The investigation is terminated.
    The Commission vote for this determination took place on December 
5, 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: December 5, 2025.
Lisa Barton,
Secretary to the Commission.
