Counsel for Royal Brush Files Updated Notice of Entry to Comply With CAFC Rules
Counsel for pencil importer Royal Brush Manufacturing resubmitted its entry of appearance at the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit Dec. 23, attempting to bring its filing in line with court rules. The appellate court previously found that the notice was not in compliance with court rules since the filing party, Ronald Oleynik of Holland & Knight, didn't have an electronic filing account (see 2112160069). In the updated filing, Steven Gordon was listed as principal counsel for Royal Brush (Royal Brush Manufacturing, Inc. v. U.S., Fed. Cir. #22-1226).

In the case, Royal Brush is appealing a Court of International Trade decision that said that CBP properly found that the company evaded antidumping duties on cased pencils from China (see 2111010036). The case was notable since it was the first in which a court recognized a due process deficiency in CBP's Enforce and Protect Act investigations. The trade court said that CBP didn't provide adequate public summaries of confidential information -- a shortcoming that was fixed by CBP then sustained by CIT.
