JUDGMENT
In Crawfish Processors Alliance v. United States , 29 CIT ___, 395 F. Supp. 2d 1330 (2005), the Court remanded this matter to the UnitedStates Department of Commerce (“Commerce”) with instructions to either: (1)(a) explain with specificity how the interactions between Jiangsu Hilon g In ternational Trade Co., Ltd. (“Jiangsu”) andNingbo Nanlian Frozen Foods Company, Ltd. (“Nanlian”) indicate that one company has control over the other or both, especially how the invoices from Jiangsu to Hontex Enterprises, I nc., d/b/a Louisiana Pac king Company created a business relationship with Nanlian during the September 1, 1999, to August 31, 2000, period of re view, and (b) explain with specificity how Mr. Wei’s contact sConsol. Court No. 02-00376 Page 2

with Jiangsu and Nanlian demonstrate control of either company on behalf of the other or control over both; and (2) if Commerce is unable to provide subst anti al evidence supporting its collapsing decision, then it is to treat Jiangsu and Nanlian as unaffiliated entities and assign separate company specific anti dumping duty margins using verified information on the record. See Cr awf ish Processors Alliance , 29 CIT at ___, 395 F. Supp. 2d at 1337.
On December 9, 2005, Commerce filed its Final Res ults o f Determination Pursuant to Court Remand(“ Final Results ”). For its Final Results , Commerce determinedthat without the presumption of affiliation between Jiangsu and Nanlian, the invoices and Mr. Wei’s contacts between the two companies is insufficient to sustain its earlier determination to collap se the two companies. See Final Results at 5. Therefore, Commerce is treating Jiangsu and Nanlian as unaffiliated enti ties. See id. Accordingly, Nanlian’s antidumpingduty margin for the period September 1, 1999, to August 3 1, 2000, is 62.51 percent. See id. at 6. Commerce did not initiate a review of Jiangsu during the period of review, only reviewing Jiangsu’s information as part of the col l apsed Jiangsu/Nanlian entity, thus Jiangsu does not have a separate entity margin for the period of review. See id.
This Court, hav ing r eceived and reviewed Commerce’s Final Results , and ha ving received no comments from the parties, holds that Commerce duly complied with the Court’s remand order, and it is hereby
ORDERED that Commerce’s Final Results are reasonable, supported by substantial evidence, and is otherwise in accordance with law; and it is further
ORDERED that the Final Results filed by Commerce on December 9, 2005, are affirmed in their entirety; and it is further
ORDERED that since all other issues have been decided, thi s case is dismissed.
