CIT Sustains AD/CVD Circumvention Finding on Steel Products in Confidential Opinion

The Court of International Trade sustained the Commerce Department's final results in an investigation into circumvention of the antidumping and countervailing duties on corrosion-resistant steel products from the China, in a Sept. 24 confidential order. The case was brought by Al Ghurair Iron & Steel, which was found to be circumventing the AD/CVD orders via the United Arab Emirates. In a letter to the litigants, Judge Timothy Reif requested that the parties review the opinion by Oct. 1 for any confidential information to be redacted (Al Ghurair Iron & Steel LLC v. United States, CIT #21-00142).
