The U.S. International Trade Commission decided not to review a decision made by an administrative law judge, which allowed Maxell, Ltd. to change their complaint in an investigation to include additional patent infringement claims against Samsung Electronics. Maxell argued that a previous oversight meant these claims were not initially included, and the judge agreed, noting that Samsung would not be significantly harmed because they were already aware of the claims. Samsung opposed the change, saying Maxell did not follow the correct procedure initially. No petitions to review the judge's decision were filed, and the Commission voted on March 10, 2025, to accept it without further review.
