2022 – Federal Register Recent Federal Regulation Documents

The U.S. Department of Commerce (Commerce) preliminarily determines that certain stainless steel sheet and strip (SSSS) of Chinese-origin that has undergone further processing in the Socialist Republic of Vietnam (Vietnam) is merchandise covered by the scope of the antidumping duty (AD) and countervailing duty (CVD) orders on SSSS from the People's Republic of China (China). Additionally, Commerce preliminarily determines that SSSS that is completed in Vietnam using certain non-subject stainless steel flat-rolled inputs sourced from China, is circumventing the AD/CVD orders on SSSS from China. As a result, SSSS of Chinese-origin that has undergone further processing or completion in Vietnam will be subject to suspension of liquidation effective May 15, 2020. We invite interested parties to comment on these preliminary determinations.

On March 27, 2019, the Department of Justice (the Department) published in the Federal Register an Advanced Notice of Proposed Rulemaking (ANPRM) to solicit public comments regarding whether the Department should allow practitioners who appear before the Executive Office for Immigration Review (EOIR) to engage in limited representation or representation of a noncitizen during only a portion of the case, beyond what the regulations permitted. On September 30, 2020, after reviewing the comments to the ANPRM, the Department published in the Federal Register a Notice of Proposed Rulemaking (NPRM). The NPRM proposed to amend the regulations to allow practitioners the option of entering a limited appearance to assist pro se individuals with drafting, writing, or filing applications, petitions, briefs, and other documents in proceedings before EOIR, as opposed to requiring the practitioner to enter an appearance to become the ``practitioner of record'' and thereby to accept certain obligations and responsibilities. This final rule responds to comments received in response to the NPRM and adopts the proposed rule with changes as described below. Specifically, this final rule permits practitioners to provide document assistance to pro se individuals by entering a limited appearance through new Forms EOIR-60 or EOIR-61, without requiring the practitioner to become the practitioner of record or to submit a motion to withdraw or substitute after completing the document assistance.

Lineal descendants or representatives of any Indian Tribe or Native Hawaiian organization not identified in this notice that wish to request transfer of control of these human remains and associated funerary objects should submit a written request to the Museum of Cultural and Natural History. If no additional requestors come forward, transfer of control of the human remains and associated funerary objects to the lineal descendants, Indian Tribes, or Native Hawaiian organizations stated in this notice may proceed.
