Domestic Wind Tower Coalition Appeals CIT Denial of Injunction in AD/CVD Case

The Wind Tower Trade Coalition appealed the Court of International Trade’s denial of an injunction preventing liquidation of entries made during the “provisional measures” period between the preliminary determination and antidumping and countervailing duty orders in the investigations of utility scale wind towers from China and Vietnam. The court had ruled March 29 that a previous CIT case had decided the issue of how to interpret the International Trade Commission’s vote pattern in its injury determination, and so the coalition would have had a difficult time proving the ITA improperly ordered liquidation of the entries (see 13040132).
