Dreyfus Ashby & Co. v. United States

Opinion by

It was stipulated that the facts and issues herein are similar in all material respects to those involved in United States v. Browne Vintners Co., Inc. (34 C.C.P.A. 112, C.A.D. 351) and that the one carton of liquor reported by the inspector as manifested, not found, was not in fact received by the importer. In accordance with stipulation of counsel and following the decision cited, it was held that duty and internal revenue tax are not assessable upon the one carton of liquor, which was reported by the inspector as manifested, not found. The protest was sustained to this extent.
