Obama Administration Vetoes Partial Ban on Apple Products
Saturday August 3, 2013 1:20 pm PDT by James Cull

The Obama administration has vetoed a partial ban on the import and sale of some Apple products which was granted back in June in response to a ruling made by the USITC (United States International Trade Commission). The ban, which applied to AT&T models of the iPhone 4 and iPhone 3GS, and the 3G models of the iPad and the iPad 2, was granted after the USITC found that the aforementioned products infringed on a Samsung patent, specifically Patent No. 7,706,348, titled "Apparatus and method for encoding/decoding transport format combination indicator in CDMA mobile communication system."

Today, in a letter to Irving A. Williamson, the Chairman of the USITC, the United States Trade Representative Michael B. G. Froman declared the following:

After extensive consultations with the agencies of the Trade Policy Staff Committee and the Trade Policy Review Group [...] I have decided to disapprove the USITC’s determination to issue an exclusion order and cease and desist order in this investigation.

The letter further went on to note that the Obama administration was "committed to promoting innovation and economic progress, including through providing adequate and effective protection and enforcement of intellectual property rights".

The Verge has noted that this is the first time since 1987 that the President of the United States has interfered with a decision from the ITC. This comes after the FTC (Federal Trade Commission) recently criticised this sort of use of sales bans (rather than monetary compensation) as a means of executing patent infringement – as it in effect harms rival products and companies and does not promote a competitive trading environment. CNet had previously cited experts who believed it was unlikely for the administration to step in on this case.

Just last week, Verizon attorney Randal Milch published an open letter calling for presidential intervention in this case to veto the ban. The ban would have otherwise gone into effect on August 5th, 2013.

前情提要是在苹狗vs三棒的诉讼大战中，ITC（美国国际贸易委员会）判决苹狗侵犯三棒某通信专利成立，禁售三棒提出的苹狗侵权产品，即iPhone 3G、iPhone 3GS、iPhone 4(AT&T)、iPad一代(AT&T)和iPad 2(AT&T)。苹狗提出三棒的专利属于FRAND范畴，应该提供合理的授权渠道，三棒给出的销售额2.4%的方案苹狗无法接受。

之后是各界猜测奥巴马是否会驳回ITC的这个裁决（美国总统是有这个权利的，但是1987年以来未曾行使过）。FTC（联邦贸易委员会）抱怨专利诉讼动辄搞到禁售是不合适的，对塑造公平的商业竞争环境有负面影响。运营商Verizon的律师还发表了公开信，呼吁奥巴马驳回ITC的裁决，他提出三棒的专利不是苹狗产品的核心部分，不应该进行禁售。

今天美国贸易代表处（Office of the United States Trade Representative，总统职能机构的一部分）给ITC理事长发出信件，推翻了ITC先前作出的禁售裁决，并提到奥巴马政府将继续“为知识产权提供适当而有效的保护手段，从而进一步推进知识创新和经济发展”。
