IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

CHARLES T. DAVIS,

Plaintiff, 2:04-cv-0878-GEB-DAD-P

vs.

C/O KISSINGER, et al., ORDER

Defendants.

 /

On March 24, 2008, plaintiff filed a timely request for reconsideration of the

magistrate judge’s order filed March 3, 2008, denying plaintiff’s discovery motions, and the

magistrate judge’s scheduling order issued on the same date. Pursuant to E.D. Local Rule 72-

303(f), a magistrate judge’s orders shall be upheld unless “clearly erroneous or contrary to law.” 

Upon review of the entire file, the court finds that it does not appear that the magistrate judge’s

ruling was clearly erroneous or contrary to law.

 Therefore, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that, upon reconsideration, the orders of

the magistrate judge filed March 3, 2008, are affirmed. 

Dated: July 14, 2008

United States Customs Court, Second Division

(Decided April 18, 1941)

*Harper & Harper (Abraham Gottfried*of counsel) for the plaintiff.

*Charles D. Lawrence,*Acting Assistant Attorney General *(Richard F. Weeks,*special attorney), for the defendant.

Before Tilson, Kincheloe, and Dallingee, Judges

DalliNGER, Judge:

This is a suit against the United States, arising at the port of Los Angeles, brought to recover certain customs duties alleged to have been improperly exacted on a particular importation described on the invoice in red ink as “Instruments for measuring gravity,” which articles are commonly known as gravimeters. Duty *227was levied thereon at the rate of $4.50 each plus 65 per centum ad valorem under paragraph 368 (a) of the Tariff Act of 1930 as instruments or devices of the kind therein made dutiable at that rate. It is claimed that said articles are properly dutiable at the rate of *27%*per centum ad valorem under paragraph 372 of said act as machines not specially provided for.

At the hearing held at Los Angeles on October 8, 1940, before Evans, Judge, it was stipulated by and between counsel for the respective parties in open court that the merchandise in question is similar in all material respects to the 'gravimeters which were the subject of the decision of this court in *Shell Petroleum Corp.*v. *United States,*C. D. 243, 3 Cust. Ct. 233, decided November 1, 1939, and the record in that case was incorporated herein.

While counsel for the plaintiff stated in open court that he relied upon;the claim that the articles in question were dutiable at the rate of *27%*per centum ad valorem under said'paragraph 372, nevertheless, inasmuch as he had previously amended his protest by adding thereto the claim that the articles were properly dutiable at the rate of 40 per centum ad valorem under paragraph 360 of said act as scientific or laboratory instruments, after the .incorporation of the record in the cited case, counsel proceeded to offer in evidence the testimony of Lowell C. Beers, a physicist in the employ of the plaintiff corporation. He testified that he was familiar with the gravimeters constituting the imported merchandise at bar; that they were chiefly used in the field in search of petroleum; and that they do not perform any of the functions performed by the instruments which are enumerated in said paragraph 368 (a) of the Tariff Act of 1930.

Upon this record we follow the cited decision and hold the instant gravimeters to be properly dutiable at the rate of 27K per centum ad valorem under paragraph 372 of said act as machines not specially provided for, as alleged by the plaintiff. That claim is therefore sustained; but as to all other merchandise the claims are overruled. Judgment will be rendered accordingly.
Part 1, Section VI: USSGL Crosswalks to Reclassified

Statements

This section includes crosswalks for use in Fiscal Year 2018 GTAS Reporting. These crosswalks map

USSGL accounts to external reports in accordance with TFM Volume I, Part 2, Chapter 4700, Agency

Reporting Requirements for the Financial Report of the United States Government. Each report crosswalk

lists the proper USSGL accounts and applicable attributes for each line and/or column on the reports.

Attributes identify information subsidiary to the basic 6-digit USSGL accounts. This subsidiary information is

necessary to meet external reporting requirements. See Section IV for additional information on attributes.

The following are crosswalks from the USSGL Chart of Accounts to standard external reports required by

Fiscal Service:

PER CURIAM:

Yuri J. Stoyanov appeals the district court’s order 

dismissing his claims against Defendants, including those 

brought pursuant to Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, 

as amended, 42 U.S.C. §§ 2000e to 2000e-17 (2006), the Age 

Discrimination in Employment Act of 1967, as amended, 29 U.S.C. 

§§ 621 to 634 (2006), and the Whistleblower Protection Act, 5 

U.S.C. §§ 1214, 1221 and 2302 (2006). We have reviewed the 

record and find no reversible error. Accordingly, we affirm the 

district court’s order. See Stoyanov v. Mabus, No. 1:07-cv01764-WDQ (D. Md. Dec. 9, 2009). We dispense with oral argument 

because the facts and legal contentions are adequately presented 

in the materials before the court and argument would not aid the 

decisional process.

Action brought on 21 March 2006 — Nikolaos Theofilopoulos v Commission of the European Communities

(Case T-91/06)

(2006/C 190/39)

Language of the case: Greek

Parties

Applicant: Nikolaos Theofilopoulos (Athens, Greece) (represented by: P. Miliarakis, lawyer)

Defendant: Commission of the European Communities

Form of order sought

The Court is asked to:

Pleas in law and main arguments

The applicant states that, following his own guarantee, the five letters of guarantee were issued by TSMEDE for the companies ‘Impetus EPE’ and ‘Impetus AEVE’, on which he is President and Managing Director. Those letters of guarantee were lodged by the above companies with the Commission in connection with contracts which they had entered into with the Commission. The applicant maintains that the Commission unlawfully and culpably refused to return those letters of guarantee, although it had no reason to retain them. He considers that that unlawful and culpable conduct of the Commission's bodies justifies this application, since he himself is required to pay TSMEDE the amounts in respect of which those letters were issued.

US EPA Region III 

Air Protection Division 

1650 Arch Street (3APOO) 

Philadelphia, PA 19103-2029 

Re: Relief from Tier 4i Engine "Inducement" in Emergency Situations 

Dear Ms. Fernandez, 

Bank of America is writing this letter in support of Caterpillar and EMA's (Engine 

Manufacturers Association) position to obtain short term relief from the inducements (automatic 

engine shutdown due to emission control system malfunction) associated with Tier 4i certified 

_Aiesel engin~s while operating in emergency situations. 

Bank of America has recently installed five (5) Tier 4i certified 2,250 kW diesel generators at its 

Pennsylvania Data Center. These five generators are in addition to six generators installed prior 

to 2008. The purpose of all generators at this site is to provide emergency backup in the event of 

a power outage or fluctuation. The Data Center is a critical facility and any loss of power while 

either on utility or backup generator power would result in potentially millions of dollars worth 

of equipment losses/damages, as well as the loss and shutdown of banking services to our global 

customer base. It is absolutely crucial that power be maintained even when utility service is 

interrupted. Thus, any possibility of a generator shutdown while operating in emergency 

situations must be avoided. 

As a result of extensive discussions with the EPA, EMA provided a letter on July 9, 2014 that 

proposed a potential solution to engine inducement when operating in emergency situations. 

Bank of America is also urging the EPA to change the current required manufacturer inducement 

protocols that are a part ofthe Tier 4i regulation. While Bank of America fully intends to 

properly maintain their generator emission control systems, the inability to prevent any of the 

Tier 4i engines from derating and shutdown creates an unacceptable risk no matter how remote 

the possibility. We also want to convey the urgency of addressing this situation because of the 

potential consequences of engine inducement. 

Bank of America is also confronted with this situation at some of its other facilities including 

locations in Virginia and Texas, where we have installed Tier 4i engines that function as 

emergency generators. Although we could have installed Tier 2 engines, we opted to install the 

lower emission Tier 4i engines and now are at risk during a power outage because of the 

inducement requirement. 
BankofAmerica ,..

Thank you for your consideration of both Bank of America's and EMA's request with respect to 

this matter.
