Cabinet Importer to Appeal CIT's Upholding of Evasion Finding

Importer Skyview Cabinet USA will appeal a June ruling by the Court of International Trade that it evaded antidumping and countervailing duty orders on wooden cabinets and vanities from China to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit, according to an Aug. 18 filing (Skyview Cabinet USA v. U.S., CIT # 22-00080). In June, CIT upheld the results of an Enforce and Protect Act investigation of Skyview that found the company had evaded AD by claiming the goods were made by Malaysia-based manufacturer Rowenda Kitchen (See 2109300059). In his June opinion, Judge Stephen Vaden said CBP had correctly found that inconsistencies in submissions were enough for Commerce to find Skyview's submission non-credible and that the record backed the evasion finding (see 2306200059).
