CHAPTER 6 APPENDIX
6.5 A L IST OF E XCLUSION O RDERS
A part of this table is reproduced from the USITC’s official outstanding exclusion orders list.326 The older exclusion orders that are still enforceable are all non-patent based ones (e.g., trademark). Only one such exclusion order (337-TA-165) was not enforceable as of this writing. The exclusion order for 337-TA-165 was vetoed by the President. The remainder, however outdated, are still enforceable.
Pre-1974 exclusion orders were all patent-based. Needless to say, they all expired as of this writing.
