The following lawsuits were recently filed at the Court of International Trade:
The U.S. Court of International Trade vacated the repository requirement imposed in its July 6 preliminary injunction (PI) order for importers to request suspending the liquidation of customs entries from China with Section 301 lists 3 or 4A tariff exposure, said an order signed Sept. 8 by Judges Claire Kelly and Jennifer Choe-Groves. The government will liquidate those entries “in the ordinary course” and refund the money with interest if the tariffs are declared unlawful, “should that decision become final and conclusive, including all appeals,” it said. The court also vacated the PI order’s temporary restraining order period when no entries could have liquidated, with or without the repository.
The Commerce Department's proposed schedule to review Section 232 exclusion requests on remand is "necessary in light of Commerce's current limited resources," the agency said in a Sept. 9 brief. Replying to the plaintiffs' opposition to Commerce's voluntary remand motion at the Court of International Trade, the agency also urged the court to simply defer to the proposed schedule due to Commerce's limited resources and the non-prejudicial nature of the schedule to the lawsuit's parties. Many of the consolidated plaintiffs opposed the schedule, arguing that it was "unreasonable" with a "nonsensical" rationale (see 2108170072).

The U.S. Court of International Trade extended by a week to Sept. 10 the deadline for CBP to activate the repository imposed in the July 6 preliminary injunction order for importers to suspend the liquidation of customs entries from China with Section 301 lists 3 and 4A tariff exposure. Chief Judge Mark Barnett proposed the delay at a status conference held Sept. 1 after plaintiffs and the government appeared close to an agreement on a refund stipulation plan that would make the repository unnecessary (see 2109010055). Activating the repository anyway on its original Sept. 3 deadline in light of the pending agreement would be “an exercise in futility,” Barnett told the court prior to issuing the text order.
