Protest 111817-K/12671 of Standard Fruit & Steamship Co.

Opinion of the Court

Opinion by

Keefe, J.

At the trial counsel for the Government moved to dismiss the protest as untimely. An examination of the entry papers disclosed that the entry was liquidated on February 22, 1944, and the protest was not filed until May 1, 1944. Under the provisions of section 514, the last day upon which protest may legally be filed expired on April 22. The motion of Government to dismiss was therefore granted.
