L'acheteur, professionnel de la confection, qui néglige, avant de commander une importante quantité de tissu, de s'assurer par des essais préalables, que celui-ci est adapté à l'usage qu'il veut en faire, est pour partie responsable du préjudice causé par le vice caché de la chose.

The reason for rejecting proposed undertakings based on past experience acquired in the sector, which has shown that the undertakings do not constitute a satisfactory solution, is sufficient. 

CJEC, 5th chamber, May 7, 1987, No 256-84

Choosing to calculate the export price according to the transaction-by-transaction method rather than on the basis of a weighted average of the prices charged is justified where this method is the only method capable of dealing with certain maneuvers in which dumping is disguised by charging different prices, some above the normal value and some below it.

The choice between the different methods of calculation of the normal value and the export price, which requires an appraisal of complex economic situations, is subject to judicial review limited to verifying that the relevant procedural rules have been complied with,  the facts on which the choice is based have been accurately stated and that there has been no manifest error of appraisal or a misuse of powers.

Since comparing the normal value and the export price to determine the dumping margin does not require both elements to be calculated according to the same methods, the normal value may be calculated on the basis of a weighted average of the prices paid on the domestic market and the export price according to the transaction-by-transaction method.

CJEC, 5th chamber, May 7, 1987, No 260-84

Since the contested anti-dumping regulation does not lay down general rules which apply to a whole group of traders without distinguishing between them, but imposes different anti-dumping duties on a series of manufacturers or exporters who are expressly named and established in certain countries, and also on other companies which are not named but which pursue the same activities in those same countries, a trader is individually concerned only by those provisions of the contested regulation which impose on it a specific anti-dumping duty and determine the amount thereof.

CJEC, 5th chamber, May 7, 1987, No 258-84

In order to determine a dumping margin, the institutions may take account of the official exchange rates on the basis of which international trade transactions take place.

Injury suffered by European production due to dumped imports is assessed as a whole without it being necessary to define separately the share in such injury which is attributable to each of the companies responsible.

The rejection of an undertaking based on past experience in the sector concerned which has shown that undertakings do not provide a satisfactory solution to the problems caused by instances of dumping, constitutes an adequate statement of reasons.

Choosing to calculate the export price not on the basis of a weighted average of the prices paid but instead on a transaction-by-transaction method is justified where it is the only method capable of dealing with certain maneuvers in which dumping is disguised by charging different prices, some above the normal value and some below it.

The choice between the different methods of calculation of normal value and the export price is subject to a court review limited to verifying that the relevant procedural rules have been complied with,  the facts have been accurately stated and whether there has been a manifest error of appraisal of such facts or a misuse of powers, insofar as it requires an appraisal of complex economic situations.

Since the comparison between normal value and export price in order to establish the dumping margin does not require the two elements to be calculated according to the same methods, normal value may be calculated on the basis of a weighted average of the prices paid on the domestic market and the export price according to the transaction-by-transaction method.

CJEC, 5th chamber, May 7, 1987, No 255-84

An undertaking may be rejected in view of the past experience in the sector concerned which has shown that undertakings did not provide for a satisfactory solution to the problems caused by instances of dumping.

Normal value and export price may be calculated according to different methods for the determination of the dumping margin.

Voluntary price increases made after the period covered by the investigation cannot prevent the proceeding from being terminated or a definitive anti-dumping duty from being imposed insofar as they may give rise to a review or result in the refunding of the duty collected.
