    CIT denies Commerce extension, orders exclusion of Jiangyang Wood and Dehua TB from hardwood plywood AD order

    The U.S. Court of International Trade, in Slip Op. 26-120 in Consol. Court No. 18-00002, denied the government's motion for an extension of time for Commerce to file remand results and ordered Commerce to exclude Xuzhou Jiangyang Wood Industries Co., Ltd. and Zhejiang Dehua TB Import & Export Co., Ltd. from the Antidumping Duty Order on Hardwood Plywood from China, imposing no antidumping duty margins on them. The court held that the Federal Circuit's decision in Linyi II, 174 F.4th 1351 (Fed. Cir. 2026), made the exclusion final, so Commerce may not reopen the record to calculate individual rates.
