`Inv. No. 337-TA-1351
`
`ORDER NO. 40:
`
`DIRECTING COMPLAINANT AND MOBILESENTRIX TO
`CONFER REGARDING THE MOTION TO TERMINATE
`
`(December 7, 2023)
`
`On November 16, 2023, Complainant Samsung Display Co., Ltd. (“Complainant”) and
`
`Respondents Apt-Ability LLC d/b/a MobileSentrix and Mobile Defenders, LLC (collectively,
`
`“MobileSentrix”) moved (1351-015) to terminate the investigation as to MobileSentrix.
`
`Complainant and MobileSentrix filed a revised public version of the motion on November 24,
`
`2023. See EDIS Doc. ID 809203. On November 27, 2023, Respondent Mianyang BOE
`
`Optoelectronics Co., Ltd (“Mianyang BOE”) opposed the motion. See EDIS Doc. ID 809331. The
`
`Commission Investigative Staff (“Staff”) also opposed the motion. EDIS Doc. ID 809289 (“Staff
`
`Resp.”).
`
`In its opposition, Staff identified several issues with the Consent Order Stipulation and
`
`Proposed Consent Order. See Staff Resp. at 3 (identifying two issues with the Consent Order
`
`Stipulation), id. at 5-6 (identifying three issues with the Proposed Consent Order). Complainant
`
`and MobileSentrix should consider Staff’s concerns. If they decide to file an amended versions of
`
`the Consent Order Stipulation and Proposed Consent Order, they should do so by December 13,
`
`2023.

`

`
`
`Staff also opposes limited service of the settlement term sheet. Staff notes that “[t]he
`
`Binding Settlement Term Sheet contains provisions that appear to be relevant to public interest
`
`considerations.” Id. at 10. According to Staff “any prejudice to the non-settling respondents could
`
`be eliminated if movants submit a public version of the Binding Settlement Term Sheet that
`
`preserves the term sheet’s substance and redacts only genuinely confidential information.” Id. In
`
`the alternative, Staff suggests that the movants file a confidential version in which only the
`
`financial terms are redacted and which could be served on non-settling respondents. Id. at 10-11.
`
`In light of Staff’s comments and Minayang BOE’s opposition, I direct Complainant and
`
`MobileSentrix to confer regarding the redactions to the Binding Settlement Term Sheet. By
`
`December 13, 2023, Complainant and MobileSentrix should either: (1) file a revised public version
`
`of the Binding Settlement Term Sheet; (2) file a confidential version of the Binding Settlement
`
`Term Sheet that can be served on the non-settling Respondents. If the movants elect this option,
`
`they must also file a declaration in support of the redactions; or (3) file a one-page statement
`
`indicating that they do not intend to file a revised version of the Binding Settlement Term Sheet.
`
`After the movants take one of these actions, Staff and Mianyang BOE should file a one-page
`
`statement as to whether they continue to oppose the motion.1 Such statements should be filed by
`
`December 18, 2023.
`
`Within seven days of the date of this document, the parties shall submit to the Office of the
`
`Administrative Law Judges a joint statement as to whether they seek to have any portion of this
`
`document deleted from the public version. If the parties do seek to have portions of this document
`
`deleted from the public version, they must submit to this office a copy of this document with red
`
`
`1 If Staff requires additional pages to address whether the amended versions of the Consent Order
`Stipulation, Proposed Consent Order, and/or the Binding Settlement Term Sheet comply with the
`Commission Rules, Staff may exceed this page limitation without first seeking leave.
