United States Federal Circuit

The decision of the U.S. Court of International Trade denying plaintiff's motions for preliminary injunctions to enjoin antidumping and countervailing duty orders issued by the Department of Commerce is affirmed, where: 1) plaintiff has not demonstrated its likelihood of success on the merits of its challenge to Commerce's application of the Special Rule; 2) the Trade Court did not abuse its discretion in holding that plaintiff's showing of irreparable injury is outweighed by its failure to demonstrate any likelihood of success on the merits; 3) the Trade Court properly found that the equities did not favor plaintiff; and 4) it was not an abuse of discretion for the Trade Court to find, given the unlikelihood of plaintiff's success on the merits, that granting the preliminary injunctions would not be in the public interest.
