sale for importation, and the sale within the United States after
importation of certain light-emitting diodes and products containing
same by reason of infringement of claims 1, 3, 6, 7, and 10-13 of U.S.
Patent No. 6,066,861; claims 1, 3, 6, 7, 10-13, and 15 of U.S. Patent
No. 6,245,259; claims 1-2, 6-7, 11-12, and 15 of U.S. Patent No.

claims 1 and 5-8 of U.S. Patent No. 6,469,321; claims 1, 5-8, 10-13,

The complaint and notice of investigation named three respondents,
including respondent Dominant Semiconductors Sdn. Bhd. (``Dominant'').
On July 2, 2004, complainants filed a motion pursuant to Commission
rule 210.14 to amend the complaint and notice of investigation to
assert claims 1-3 and 5 of U.S. Patent No. 6,716,673 against Dominant,
representing that Dominant did not oppose the motion. The Commission
investigative attorney supported the motion. On July 21, 2004, the ALJ
issued the subject ID granting complainants' motion. 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. Sec.
1337), and in section 210.42 of the Commission's Rules of Practice and
Procedure (19 CFR 210.42).
