Appendix
Revocation of the Order
Pursuant to the CIT's holding in PT. Zinus et al. v. United
States, Slip Op. 25-15, Consol. Ct. No. 21-277, (February 18, 2025)
(PT. Zinus III) sustaining Commerce's second remand redetermination
pertaining to the AD investigation of mattresses from Indonesia
covering the period of investigation January 1, 2019, through
December 31, 2019, Commerce is revoking the AD order on mattresses
from Indonesia pursuant to 19 CFR 351.222(b)(2). Pursuant to section
735(c)(2) of the Act, ``the investigation shall be terminated upon
publication of that negative determination'' and Commerce shall
``terminate the suspension of liquidation'' and ``release any bond
or other security, and refund any cash deposit.'' As a result of the
CIT's decision, Commerce is hereby revoking the Order and releasing
any bonds or other security and refunding cash deposits.
While section 735(c)(2)(A) of the Act instructs Commerce to
terminate suspension of liquidation, here, because suspension of
liquidation must continue during the pendency of the appeals process
(in accordance with Timken and as discussed above), we will instruct
CBP at this time to (A) continue suspension at a cash deposit rate
of 0.0 percent until instructed otherwise; and (B) release any bond
or other security, and refund any cash deposit made pursuant to the
order on Indonesian mattresses published in Mattresses from
Cambodia, Indonesia, Malaysia, Serbia, Thailand, the Republic of
Turkey, and the Socialist Republic of Vietnam: Antidumping Duty
Orders and Amended Final Affirmative Antidumping Determination for
Cambodia, 92 FR 26460 (May 14, 2021). In the event the CIT's ruling
in PT. Zinus III is not appealed, or if appealed and upheld by the
U.S. Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit, Commerce
[[Page 13139]]
will instruct CBP to terminate the suspension of liquidation and to
liquidate those entries of subject merchandise without regard to
antidumping duties. Notwithstanding the continued suspension
described above, the AD order on mattresses from Indonesia is hereby
revoked. As a result of this revocation, Commerce is discontinuing
all unfinished administrative reviews immediately and will not
initiate any new administrative reviews of the Order.
