Leibowitz Responds to Section 232 Exclusion Questions

The following article was written by trade attorney Lewis Leibowitz. You can find his contact information at the end of the article:

John Packard asked me to respond to questions from SMU readers about the new procedures for requesting steel product exclusions from the tariffs scheduled to go into effect at midnight Friday morning. The last few days have seen a flurry of acitivity and speculation about the exclusion process. It is safe to say that this process is very different from earlier iterations such as “short supply” under the steel VRAs in the 1980s and the exclusion process in the Section 201 remedies from 2002-03.
