Geo. E. Athans Co. v. United States

Opinion by

Johnson, J.

At the trial it was stipulated that the issue herein is similar in all material respects to that involved in United States v. Browne Vintners Co., Inc. (34 C. C. P. A. 112, C. A. D. 351) and that the merchandise, consisting of 6 barrels of Calamata olives, reported by the inspector as manifested, not found, was not in fact imported. In accordance with stipulation of counsel and following the decision cited it was held that duty is not assessable upon such portions of the merchandise as were reported by the inspector as manifested, not found. The protest was sustained to this extent.
