Zhongce Rubber Grp. Co. v. United States

Choe-Groves, Judge:

Plaintiff Zhongce Rubber Group Company Limited ("Zhongce") brings this action pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1581 (c) (2012), contesting the application of adverse facts available ("AFA") by the U.S. Department of Commerce ("Commerce") in calculating the rate applied to Zhongce during an administrative review of the countervailing duty order on passenger vehicle and light truck tires from the People's Republic of China. Plaintiff argues that Commerce's application of AFA is unsupported by substantial evidence and that the "all others" rate should apply to Zhongce.
