Hytera Communications Corp. (002583.SZ) said Wednesday that it has learned the U.S. International Trade Commission will review-in-part the final initial determination issued July 3 by an ITC Administrative Law Judge that certain features in Hytera's digital mobile radio products sold in the U.S. infringe some claims in patents of Motorola Solutions Inc. (MSI).

Hytera had petitioned for the review July 17, citing errors in the initial determination and arguing that the commission had reasonable grounds to review substantial elements of it. The ITC issued its Notice of Review on Tuesday, and will postpone its final determination to Nov. 16.

While the ITC conducts its review, there continues to be no ban on the importation into or sale in the U.S. of any Hytera products.

In July, Motorola Solutions said a judge found Hytera infringed four Motorola patents. According to Motorola, the judge's initial determination stated that Motorola met the legal requirement of showing a "technical domestic industry" on three of the four patents.

In a December 2018 lawsuit, Hytera alleged Motorola engaged in anticompetitive practices that led to inflated prices.
