JTEKT Appeals CIT's Dismissal of Koyo's Claim for CDSOA Funds

JTEKT North America, successor to Koyo Corporation, appealed the Court of International Trade’s March 13 denial of Koyo’s bid for funds under the Continued Dumping and Subsidization Offset Act (also known as the Byrd Amendment). Koyo, a domestic tapered roller bearing manufacturer, had said it should receive duties collected pursuant to various antidumping duty orders on tapered roller bearings. CIT said Koyo’s constitutional arguments were identical to those raised in Pat Huval v. U.S. (see 12031204). Just as in Pat Huval, the court dismissed all of Koyo’s claims as foreclosed by precedent (see 13031429).
