ITC Section 337 investigation instituted Feb. 15, 2006, on Align's complaint against OrthoClear, Inc. et al. Asserted claims included U.S. 6,398,548 claims 21, 22, 24-30, 32-36, 38, and 39, along with numerous other Align patents and trade-secret claims; terminated by consent order implementing the Align-OrthoClear global settlement.
Align Technology filed an enforcement proceeding against ClearCorrect and its officers to enforce the 2006 Consent Order from Inv. No. 337-TA-562. The action was directed at the '511 and '880 patents specifically, but the Consent Order included the '070 patent. The Commission ultimately found no violation and terminated the proceeding, rescinding cease-and-desist orders.
Appeals to the Federal Circuit from the ITC enforcement proceeding (Inv. No. 337-TA-562 Enforcement), with ClearCorrect intervening. The '070 patent appears via recitation of the 2006 Consent Order's patent list. The court reversed the ITC's determination that it could review the ALJ's order denying termination, vacated, and remanded.
