2017). 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, and the 
sale within the United States after importation of certain shaving 
cartridges, components thereof and products containing same by reason 
of infringement of U.S. Patent No. 9,193,077 (``the '077 patent''). The

    On January 19, 2018, Gillette and respondents filed a joint motion 
to terminate the investigation in its entirety on the basis of a 
settlement agreement. The ALJ issued the subject ID granting the motion 
on January 23, 2018. The ALJ found that the motion complies with 
Commission Rules and termination of the investigation will not 
adversely affect the public interest. No petitions for review were 
filed.
    The Commission has determined not to review the ID.
    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
