The U.S. International Trade Commission (ITC) decided to end an investigation about certain motorized self-balancing vehicles because the issue became moot. Initially, the investigation began because Razor USA and others claimed certain companies were violating patent laws, but after some legal discussions and a Federal Circuit Court remand, the ITC found the case unnecessary to pursue further. The investigation showed some products infringed on patents, but changes in patent claims and other factors led to the decision that the case did not need to continue. The decision to terminate the investigation was officially voted on and recorded on January 22, 2021.
Simple Explanation
The people in charge of making sure companies follow the rules about selling certain fun scooters decided to stop looking into a problem because the problem was no longer important. Some companies argued that others were copying their ideas unfairly, but things changed, and it didn't matter anymore to keep checking.
