SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Commission instituted this investigation 
on September 21, 2012, based on a complaint filed on behalf of BriarTek 
IP, Inc. of Alexandria, Virginia. 77 FR 58579-80. The complaint 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, and the sale within the United States after importation of 
certain two-way global satellite communication devices, system and 
components thereof by reason of infringement of certain claims of U.S. 
Patent No. 7,991,380. The complaint further alleged the existence of a 
domestic industry. The Commission's notice of investigation named as 
respondents Yellowbrick Tracking, Ltd. (``Yellowbrick'') of Essex, 
United Kingdom; DeLorme Publishing Company, Inc.; and DeLorme InReach 
LLC (collectively, ``DeLorme''), both of Yarmouth, Maine.
    On December 7, 2012, the Commission determined not to review the 
ALJ's ID (Order No. 7) terminating Yellowbrick from the investigation 
based on a settlement agreement. On March 15, 2013, the Commission 
determined not to review the ALJ's ID (Order No. 17) granting-in-part 
complainant's motion for summary determination of importation of the 
accused InReach 1.0 and InReach 1.5 products, and the accused main 
boards for the InReach 1.5 product with respect to DeLorme.
    On March 7, 2013, DeLorme moved to terminate the investigation 
based on a consent order stipulation. The Commission investigative 
attorney filed a response in support of the motion and complainant 
opposed the motion.
    The ALJ issued the subject ID on March 15, 2013, granting DeLorme's 
motion for termination of the investigation. He found that the motion 
for termination by consent order stipulation satisfied Commission rule 
210.21(c)(3). He further found, pursuant to Commission rule 
210.50(b)(2), that termination of this investigation by consent order 
stipulation is in the public interest. No party petitioned for review 
of the ID.
    The Commission has determined not to review the subject ID, and has 
terminated the investigation.
    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 sections 210.21 and 210.42(h) of the Commission's Rules of Practice 
and Procedure (19 CFR 210.21, 210.42(h)).

    By order of the Commission.
    Issued: April 5, 2013.
Lisa R. Barton,
Acting Secretary to the Commission.
