Tariff Act of 1930 (19 U.S.C. 1337) in the importation into the United 
States, the sale for importation, and the sale within the United States 
after importation of certain game devices, components thereof, and 
products containing the same by reason of infringement of certain 
claims of United States Patent No. 7,787,411. The complaint named the 
following entities as respondents: Datel Design and Development Inc. of 
Clearwater, Florida; and Datel Design and Development Ltd., Datel 
Direct Ltd., Datel Holdings Ltd., and Datel Electronics Ltd. all of 
Staffordshire, United Kingdom (collectively, ``Datel'').

On August 30, 2011, the Commission investigative attorney filed a 
response in support of the motion. On September 8, 2011, Respondent 
Datel filed a response in support of the motion and requested that the 
ALJ impose certain conditions on Microsoft.
    On October 18, 2011, the ALJ issued the subject ID (Order No. 9) 
terminating the investigation. None of the parties petitioned for 
review of the ID. The Commission has determined not to review the ID. 
Accordingly, this investigation is terminated.
    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
