Court Clears Path for Litigant Importers to Recover IEEPA Duties on Finally Liquidated Entries

Short summary

The U.S. Court of International Trade ordered CBP to reliquidate, without IEEPA duties, covered plaintiffs' entries liquidated more than 80 days ago, creating a refund path that prior CAPE phases could not process. Litigant importers can pursue refunds while the government's appeal on non-litigant relief continues. Importers must map entries to correct plaintiff and importer-of-record numbers, correct CAPE errors, and keep CIT cases open until all refunds are reconciled.
