Importer Lionshead Specialty Tire and Wheel argued that the continued application of an injunction on the liquidation of its "Method B" wheel entries is "inequitable," since the plain reading of the injunction shows that the Method B wheels never have been enjoined. Responding to opposition from AD/CVD petitioner Dexstar Wheel Division of Americana Development Inc. to Lionshead's bid to amend the PI at the Court of International Trade, Lionshead added that the amendment wouldn't reverse a CBP decision, as Dexstar claims (Lionshead Specialty Tire and Wheel v. United States, CIT Consol. # 24-00019).
