The International Trade Administration is publishing notices in the November 29, 2011 Federal Register on the following AD/CV proceedings (any notices that announce changes to AD/CV duty rates, the scope, affected firms, or effective dates will be detailed in another ITT article):
FCC Chairman Julius Genachowski and key FCC staff still have not decided whether to allow AT&T to withdraw its application to buy T-Mobile (CD Nov 28 p1), agency and industry officials said Monday. Genachowski would like to make the staff memo on the deal public, regardless of whether the application is allowed be withdrawn “without prejudice,” officials said. If the staff report is released, it could become part of an upcoming trial of the government’s case against the deal in U.S. District Court in Washington. Commissioners have yet to approve through electronic voting either an order sending the application to an administrative law judge for hearing or an order Genachowski circulated the same day approving AT&T’s buy of 700 MHz spectrum from Qualcomm (CD Nov 23 p1), officials said.

The International Trade Administration has issued the final results of the antidumping duty administrative review of polyethylene terephthalate film, sheet, and strip (PET Film) from Brazil (A-351-841), which sets an AD cash deposit rate of 44.36% for producer/exporter Terphane, Inc. This rate, which is effective November 25, 2011, is expected to be implemented by U.S. Customs and Border Protection soon.
The International Trade Administration has issued a correction to its October 25, 2011 antidumping duty final results notice on folding tables and chairs from China (A-570-868), which revoked the order for New-Tec Integration (Xiamen) Co., Ltd. The correction notice states that the revocation is for subject merchandise both "produced and exported" by New-Tec. The October notice had mistakenly said that the order was revoked for subject merchandise exported by New-Tec.
Forcing ISPs to monitor all e-communications on their network to prevent digital piracy would seriously infringe their freedom to conduct their business and may also breach customers’ civil rights, the European Court of Justice said in a closely watched opinion November 24. National authorities and courts must strike a fair balance between protecting intellectual property rights and operators’ businesses, something the Belgian court order against ISP Scarlet failed to do, the court said. The decision will dramatically affect the national and European debate on online copyright infringement, said telecom/Internet independent advisor Innocenzo Genna.
