CIT Says Commerce's Finding of Government Control Not Supported by Evidence in AD Case

The Court of International Trade remanded for a second time an antidumping case on certain off-the-road tires from China, ruling that the Commerce Department failed to provide enough evidence that two respondents were under de facto government control and not warranting of an individual AD rate. Commerce had found in an administrative review that the Chinese government controlled export functions for exporters Aeolus Tyre and Guizhou Tyre Co., assigning them a 105.31% rate as part of the China-wide entity.
