Tex Mex Brick & Import Co. v. The United States

ALMOND, Judge.

This is an appeal from the decision and judgment of the United States Customs Court, Third Division, 1 overruling, as to one of three entries, the claim of the importer that certain “Pink Velour” bricks manufactured in Mexico were ceramic bricks dutiable at 50^ per 1,000 pieces under item 532.11 of the Tariff Schedules of the United States (TSUS).
