(C.D. 2858)
F. B. Wilcon Co. v. United States
United States Customs Court, Second Division
(Decided December 20, 1966)
George Broomfield for the plaintiff.
Barefoot Sanders, Assistant Attorney General, for the defendant.
Before Rao and Fokd, Judges

Opinion:
Rao, Chief Judge:
When this case was called for trial, there was no appearance by or on behalf of plaintiff, although due notice as to the time and place of trial had been given.
It appearing from the official papers that the entry herein was liquidated on December 24, 1964, but that the protest was not filed until December 29,1965, a date exceeding the statutory limit of 60 days fixed for filing protest in section 514 of the Tariff Act of 1930, the protest is untimely, and is, therefore, dismissed.
Judgment will be entered accordingly.
