How courts have described this case

Verbatim parenthetical descriptions written by other courts when citing this decision. Ranked by citation-network relevance.

• holding that an importer was barred from raising an allegedly erroneous liquidation as a defense to an enforcement action for payment on a bond when the importer had failed to protest the liquidation
• where liquidation is deemed final as a matter of law and the government later tries to liquidate the entry anew, the surety is not precluded from using the deemed liquidation as a shield against an enforcement action
• “We therefore hold that because Cherry Hill’s entry was liquidated by operation of law ..., IC & S was not required to protest the October 28 liquidation in order to ... defend against liability on the ground of the deemed liquidation.”
