Trade Commission Reconsiders LCD Glass Patent Ruling

## Summary

The U.S. International Trade Commission is rechecking part of a decision that found some imported glass used in LCD screens broke patent rules.

- Opportunity to file comments on remedy and bond: benefit, low. The Commission requests written submissions from parties, interested government agencies, and other interested persons on remedy, the public interest, and bonding.
