Westfeldt Bros. v. United States

Westfeldt Bros. v. United States
United States Customs Court · Decided February 4, 1954 · Ekwall
32 Cust. Ct. 587; 1954 Cust. Ct. LEXIS 2199
Westfeldt Bros. v. United States

Opinion of the Court

Ekwall, Judge:

These appeals for reappraisement relate to importations of chocolate imported from Cuba, and entered at the port of New Orleans, La. They have been submitted without evidence other than that contained in the official papers. Upon the record I find that the presumption of correctness attaching to the appraiser’s finding of value has not been overcome. I therefore find that the proper value in each case is the value found by the appraiser.

Judgment will be rendered accordingly.
