    The U.S. International Trade Commission received a complaint from InOvate Acquisition Company, alleging that certain dryer wall exhaust vent assemblies imported into the U.S. infringe on a U.S. patent. The complaint requests an investigation under section 337 of the Tariff Act of 1930 and seeks a limited exclusion order and a cease and desist order. The investigation will look into whether the accused products, identified as "wall exhaust vents," violate specific claims of the patent and whether a supporting U.S. industry exists. The respondents named in the complaint include an entity based in China, Xiamen Dirongte Trading Co., Ltd.

    The U.S. International Trade Commission received a complaint from Longitude Licensing Ltd. and Marlin Semiconductor Limited, both based in Ireland, alleging that certain foreign-made semiconductor devices and products are infringing on several U.S. patents.

If the allegations are proven, the Commission may issue orders to prevent the products from being imported or sold in the U.S.
