Federal Circuit Dismisses Antidumping Suspension Agreement Challenge

The U.S. Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit dismissed on Nov. 16 a case challenging a 2020 amendment to an antidumping suspension agreement on sugar from Mexico following a voluntary dismissal motion from the Department of Justice. The appellate court previously upheld the Court of International Trade's denials of two related cases (see 2107190038). Earlier this month, both DOJ and the plaintiff-appellee CSC Sugar said they believe it would be appropriate for the court to dismiss the consolidated appeal (see 2111020069) (CSC Sugar LLC v. U.S., Fed. Cir. #20-1275).
