SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Commission issued a notice of 
investigation dated June 16, 2003, naming Auto Meter Products, Inc. 
(``Auto Meter'') of Sycamore, Illinois, as the complainant and twelve 
companies as respondents. On June 20, 2003, the notice of investigation 
was published in the Federal Register. 68 FR 37023. The complaint 
alleged violations of section 337 of the Tariff Act of 1930 in the 
importation and sale of certain automotive measuring devices, products 
containing same, and bezels for such devices, by reason of infringement 
of U.S. Registered Trademark Nos. 1,732,643 and 1,497,472, and U.S. 
Supplemental Register No. 1,903,908, and infringement of complainant's 
trade dress. Subsequently, seven more firms were added as respondents 
based on two separate motions filed by complainant, and the 
investigation was terminated as to four respondents on the basis of 
consent orders.
    On June 7, 2004, the ALJ issued an ID (Order No. 30) terminating 
the investigation as to respondent Jimray Technology, Inc. d/b/a 
Progauges Co., Ltd. (``Jimray'') on the basis of a settlement agreement 
and consent order. The ALJ observed that respondent Jimray and 
complainant Auto Meter filed a joint motion to terminate based on a 
settlement agreement between them, and a proposed consent order. The 
Commission investigative attorney filed a response supporting the 
motion to terminate the investigation. No petitions for review of the 
ID were filed.
    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 section 210.42 of the Commission's Rules of Practice and Procedure 
(19 CFR 210.42).

    Issued: July 2, 2004.

    By order of the Commission.
Marilyn R. Abbott,
 Secretary to the Commission.
