Declaratory Relief Available For NAFI Contractor At Board
Client Alert | less than 1 min read | 05.26.04
In SUFI Network Services, Inc. (Apr. 22, 2004), the ASBCA held that, while it lacked Contract Disputes Act jurisdiction over the non-appropriated funds contract before it, it had jurisdiction to grant declaratory relief under its Charter if the circumstances warranted. The ASBCA then found that it made sense to exercise its declaratory jurisdiction in this case, because central questions of contract interpretation were involved, the contract had several years of performance remaining, and the Air Force actions might have a significant impact on the viability of the company.

On September 29, 2025, the U.S. Department of Commerce Bureau of Industry and Security (BIS) announced a sweeping Interim Final Rule (IFR), (the “Affiliates Rule”) expanding which entities qualify as Entity List or Military End-User entities, thereby subjecting those entities to elevated export control restrictions under the Export Administration Regulations (EAR). U.S. export restrictions applicable to entities on the Entity List, Military End-User (MEU) List, and Specially Designated Nationals and Blocked Persons (SDN List) now apply to foreign affiliates that are, in the aggregate, owned 50% or more by one or more of the aforementioned entities. An entity that becomes subject to these restrictions because of its ownership structure will be subject to the most restrictive controls that attach to any of its parent entities, regardless of ownership stakes.
