SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Background.—In June 2006, the Commission determined that revocation of the antidumping duty orders on ball bearings from France, Germany, Italy, Japan, and the United Kingdom would be likely to lead to continuation or recurrence of material injury to an industry in the United States within a reasonable foreseeable time. The Commission’s determinations for Japan and the United Kingdom were appealed to the Court of International Trade. On September 9, 2008, the Court issued a decision remanding the matter to the Commission for further proceedings. NSK v. United States, Slip Op. 08–95 (Ct. Int’l Trade, Sept. 9, 2008). In its opinion, the Court issued an order instructing the Commission to (1) ‘‘conduct a Bratsk analysis of nonsubject imports as outlined in this opinion;’’(2) ‘‘reassess supply conditions within the domestic industry,’’ i.e., the industry’s restructuring efforts during the period of review, and (3) ‘‘reexamine its findings with regard to likely impact and its decision to cumulate imports from the United Kingdom in light of changes in its determinations that may result as a consequence of the foregoing remand instructions.’’ The Commission initiated its remand proceeding on October 8, 2008. On September 18, 2008, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit issued its opinion in Mittal Steel Point Lisas, Ltd. v. United States (Ct. No. 2007–1552), which clarified and limited its holding in Bratsk Aluminium Smelter v. United States, 444 F.3d 1369 (Fed. Cir. 2006). On October 9, 2008, the Commission filed a motion for reconsideration with the Court of International Trade (‘‘CIT’’), requesting that the CIT reconsider its decision in light of the Federal Circuit’s analysis in Mittal. As part of that motion, the Commission also requested the CIT to issue a stay of its remand proceeding pending the Court’s disposition of the motion for reconsideration.

In that Order, the CIT also directed that the stay shall remain in effect until the Court has ruled on the pending motions for reconsideration.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
    Background.--In June 2006, the Commission determined that 
revocation of the antidumping duty orders on ball bearings from France, 
Germany, Italy, Japan, and the United Kingdom would be likely to lead 
to continuation or recurrence of material injury to an industry in the 
United States within a reasonable foreseeable time. The Commission's 
determinations for Japan and the United Kingdom were appealed to the 
Court of International Trade. On September 9, 2008, the Court issued a 
decision remanding the matter to the Commission for further 
proceedings. NSK v. United States, Slip Op. 08-95 (Ct. Int'l Trade, 
Sept. 9, 2008). In its opinion, the Court issued an order instructing 
the Commission to (1) ``conduct a Bratsk analysis of non-subject 
imports as outlined in this opinion;''(2) ``reassess supply conditions 
within the domestic industry,'' i.e., the industry's restructuring 
efforts during the period of review, and (3) ``reexamine its findings 
with regard to likely impact and its decision to cumulate imports from 
the United Kingdom in light of changes in its determinations that may 
result as a consequence of the foregoing remand instructions.'' The 
Commission initiated its remand proceeding on October 8, 2008.
    On September 18, 2008, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Federal 
Circuit issued its opinion in Mittal Steel Point Lisas, Ltd. v. United 
States (Ct. No. 2007-1552), which clarified and limited its holding in 
Bratsk Aluminium Smelter v. United States, 444 F.3d 1369 (Fed. Cir. 
2006). On October 9, 2008, the Commission filed a motion for 
reconsideration with the Court of International Trade (``CIT''), 
requesting that the CIT reconsider its decision in light of the Federal 
Circuit's analysis in Mittal. As part of that motion, the Commission 
also requested the CIT to issue a stay of its remand proceeding pending 
the Court's disposition of the motion for reconsideration. Defendant-
Intervenor The Timken Company (``Timken'') filed a similar motion for 
reconsideration and a motion to stay the remand proceeding.
    On October 29, 2008, the CIT granted the motions of the Commission 
and Timken and ordered a stay of the Commission's remand proceeding. In 
that Order, the CIT also directed that the stay shall remain in effect 
until the Court has ruled on the pending motions for reconsideration.
    Accordingly, the remand proceedings in this matter are hereby 
stayed pending further order.

    By order of the Commission.

    Issued: November 24, 2008.
William R. Bishop,
Acting Secretary to the Commission.
