Timken Notice

    In its decision in Timken,\8\ as clarified by Diamond Sawblades,\9\ 
the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit held that, pursuant 
to section 516A(c) and (e) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (the 
Act), Commerce must publish a notice of court decision that is not ``in 
harmony'' with a Commerce determination and must suspend liquidation of 
entries pending a ``conclusive'' court decision. The CIT's December 11, 
2025, judgment constitutes a final decision of the CIT that is not in 
harmony with Commerce's Final Determination. Thus, this notice is 
published in fulfillment of the publication requirements of Timken.\10\
