CIT Assigns 6 Countervailing Duty Actions to Judge Reif

The Court of International Trade assigned six cases over the Commerce Department's final results in the 2018 administrative review of the countervailing duty order on multilayered wood flooring from China to Judge Timothy Reif. The lead plaintiffs in the cases are Zhejiang Dadongwu Greenhome Wood Co., Fine Furniture (Shanghai) Limited, Evolutions Flooring, Dunhua City Jisen Wood Industry Co., Baroque Timber Industries (Zhongshan) Co., and American Manufacturers of Multilayered Wood Flooring. The complaints concern, among other things, the alleged use of China's Export Buyer's Credit Program, Commerce's calculations for the provision of veneer and electricity for less than adequate remuneration, and the agency's decision to use a VAT rate that doesn't reflect what the respondent actually paid.
