The first case, Anatolia Tile & Stone, contested the denial of exclusions for imported glass mosaic tile from China after CBP deemed importers' records insufficient (see 2306010035).
The second case, Bray International, sought exclusions for imported valve pressure relief components. Its importer argued that the products had been misclassified (see 2308010040).
Both cases were being litigated by Houston attorney Scott L. Johnston, who declined to comment.
