Low Enriched Uranium from France: Notice of Court Decision and Suspension of Liquidation

概要

On August 3, 2006, the United States Court of International Trade ("CIT") sustained the Department of Commerce's ("the Department's") June 19, 2006, Final Results of Redetermination on Remand pursuant to Eurodif S.A., et. al. v. United States, Consol. Ct. No. 02-00219, Slip. Op. 06-75 (CIT May 18, 2006) ("LEU Remand Redetermination"), which pertains to the Antidumping Duty Order on Low Enriched Uranium ("LEU") from France. Consistent with the decision of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit ("CAFC") in Timken Co. v. United States, 893 F.2d 337 (Fed. Cir. 1990) ("Timken"), the Department is notifying the public that this decision is "not in harmony" with the Department's original determination and will continue to order the suspension of liquidation of the subject merchandise, where appropriate, until there is a conclusive decision in this case. If the case is not appealed, or if it is affirmed on appeal, the Department will instruct U.S. Customs and Border Protection to liquidate all relevant entries from Eurodif S.A./ Compagnie Generale Des Matieres Nucleaires (collectively, "Eurodif" or "respondents").
