ACTION: Notice.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: Notice is hereby given that the U.S. International Trade 
Commission has determined not to review an initial determination 
(``ID'') (Order No. 18) issued by the presiding administrative law 
judge (``ALJ'') terminating the above-captioned investigation as to 
respondents Lynx Industries, Inc., Napoleon Spring Works, Inc., and 
Guardian Access Corp. on the basis of withdrawal of the complaint. 
Since these three respondents are the only respondents remaining in the 
investigation, their termination terminates the investigation.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Commission instituted this investigation 
on July 19, 2001, based on a complaint filed by the Chamberlain Group, 
Inc. of Elmhurst, Illinois (``Chamberlain'') against six respondents, 
66 FR 37704 (July 19, 2001). Two respondents and an intervenor were 
subsequently added to the investigation. The complaint alleged 
violations of section 337 of the Tariff Act of 1930 in the importation 
into the United States, the sale for importation, and the sale within 
the United States after importation of certain garage door operators 
including components thereof by reason of infringement of claims 1-8 of 
U.S. Letters Patent Re. 35,364 and claims 5-30 of U.S. Letters Patent 
Re. 36,703. On February 6, 2002, complainant Chamberlain filed a motion 
to terminate the investigation as to respondents Lynx Industries, Inc., 
Napoleon Spring Works, Inc., and Guardian Access Corp. on the basis of 
withdrawal of the complaint. The Commission investigative attorney 
supported the joint motion and the three respondents opposed it. On 
June 5, 2002, the ALJ issued an ID (Order No. 18) granting the motion.
    No petitions for review of the ID were filed. This action is taken 
under the authority of section 337 of the Tariff Act of 1930, 19 U.S.C. 
1337, and section 210.42 of the Commission's Rules of Practice and 
Procedure, 19 CFR 210.42.

    By order of the Commission.

    Issued: June 25, 2002.
Marilyn R. Abbott,
Secretary to the Commission.
