United States—Final Anti-Dumping Measures on Stainless Steel from Mexico
World Trade Organization, Appellate Body
47 I.L.M. 475 (2008)
Relevant factsFree
A panel resolving a dumping-methodology dispute between Mexico and the United States declined to follow the Appellate Body's prior rulings on the same calculation-methodology question from earlier disputes involving the European Community and Japan, instead relying on panel findings that the Appellate Body had already reversed, prompting Mexico's appeal alleging the panel acted inconsistently with its DSU obligation to make an objective assessment.
IssueFree
Whether a subsequent panel of the WTO Appellate Body must follow well-established jurisprudence on the same issue it is considering as interpreted by previous panels of the WTO Appellate Body.
