EnglishEspañolSimplified EnglishEspañol Fácil
Witex, U.S.A. Inc. and Mannington Mills, Inc. appealed a judgment from the United States Court of International Trade that upheld the classification of their imported laminated panels under HTSUS subheading 4411.19.40. In conjunction with a related case, Faus Group, Inc. v. United States, the court determined that similar products should be classified under HTSUS subheading 4418.90.40, which pertains to builders’ joinery and carpentry of wood, including various wooden panels. This new classification also applies to the merchandise in the current case. As a result, the previous judgment of the Court of International Trade is reversed.
