6 Cust. Ct. 614
Petition 5923-R of Erwin Weller Co.

Opinion of the Court

Opinion by

Evans, J.

It appeared that in making the entry a charge for packing and cases was deducted in error due to the fact that importer was not familiar with the law. It was held that it was the duty of the petitioner to so inform himself that his entry would conform with the law. On the authority of United States v. Swift (17 C. C. P. A. 54, T. D. 43356) the court was constrained to deny the petition.
