`
`In the Matter of
`
`CERTAIN RF CAPABLE INTEGRATED
`CIRCUITS AND PRODUCTS CONTAINING
`THE SAME
`
`COMPLAINANT PARKERVISION, INC.’S MOTION TO TERMINATE THE
`INVESTIGATION BASED ON WITHDRAWAL OF THE COMPLAINT, REQUEST
`FOR IMMEDIATE SUSPENSION OF THE PROCEDURAL SCHEDULE,
`WAIVER OF GROUND RULE 3.2, AND EXPEDITED RULING
`
`In light of the Administrative Law Judge’s rulings on the parties’ motions in limine,
`
`which Complainant ParkerVision, Inc.’s counsel was only able to review on Friday and discuss
`
`their impact with its client on Friday evening, ParkerVision respectfully moves pursuant to
`
`Commission Rules 210.21(a) (1) and 210.15 and Ground Rule 3 to terminate the Investigation
`
`based on withdrawal of the Complaint as to the remaining Respondents in this Investigation.
`
`ParkerVision does not take this action lightly. It was—and remains—fully prepared to
`
`try its case based on evidence produced and obtained from Respondents in this Investigation that
`
`proves the accused products infringe the asserted claims of the ’528 patent. However, in light of
`
`the ALJ’s recent rulings excluding material portions of its infringement evidence, ParkerVision
`
`has determined that it can no longer proceed with its case-in-chief before the Commission, and
`
`that at this point an administrative hearing would not be a justifiable or effective use of anyone’s
`
`resources. Therefore, to preserve the resources of the Commission and of the parties, and in light
`
`of the evidentiary hearing scheduled to begin on March 13, 2017, ParkerVision hereby
`
`Investigation No. 337-TA-982
`COMPLAINANT PARKERVISION, INC.’S MOTION TO TERMINATE THE INVESTIGATION BASED ON
`WITHDRAWAL OF THE COMPLAINT, REQUEST FOR IMMEDIATE SUSPENSION OF THE
`PROCEDURAL SCHEDULE, WAIVER OF GROUND RULE 3.2, AND EXPEDITED RULING
`

`
`
`
`withdraws its complaint, and respectfully requests that the procedural schedule be suspended and
`
`the Investigation be terminated immediately. Given that ParkerVision did not receive Order 26
`
`until Friday, March 10, 2017, ParkerVision also requests a waiver of the two day notice rule of
`
`Ground Rule 3.2 and an expedited ruling.
`
`The private parties and Staff have agreed that in light of this motion, no evidence will be
`
`presented at the hearing on Monday, March 13, 2017. ParkerVision represents that there are no
`
`agreements, written or oral, express or implied, between ParkerVision and other parties
`
`concerning the subject matter of the Investigation.
`
`ParkerVision also certifies that it contacted all Respondents and the Staff on March 11,
`
`2017 for their positions on this motion, and has made reasonable, good-faith efforts to resolve
`
`the matter with Respondents and Staff prior to filing this Motion. Staff and Respondents
`
`indicated they waive the two-day notice requirement of Ground Rule 3.2, and will take a position
`
`on the remaining issues after reviewing the motion papers.
