Kazakhstan's Trade Ministry Denied Right to Intervene in CIT CV Duty Case

Kazakhstan's Ministry of Trade and Integration is denied the right to join a countervailing duty case on silicon metal from Kazakhstan in the Court of International Trade as a plaintiff-intervenor, Chief Judge Mark Barnett declared June 11. "The motion is denied without prejudice for failure to comply with USCIT Rule 24," Barnett said in a text order. Defendant-intervenors and petitioners in the underlying CVD case, Globe Specialty Metals and Mississippi Silicon, said the trade ministry failed to mention the administrative determination to be reviewed and the issues the proposed intervenor wants to litigate (see 2106090088) (Tau-Ken Temir LLP et al. v. United States, CIT #21-00173).
