CO Must Identify Extension for Final Decision with Precision
Client Alert | less than 1 min read | 05.27.14
In Suh'dutsing Techs., LLC, the ASBCA held that the contractor could appeal a "deemed denial" of its certified claim 60 days after submission of the claim, notwithstanding the contracting officer's statement that it would be "at least another sixty days . . . before I am able to issue a decision." The Board held the CO's statement was "insufficiently definite" under the Contract Disputes Act, which requires a CO to, within 60 days of receiving a certified claim over $100,000, either issue a decision or "notify the contractor of the time within which a decision will be issued."

District Court Grants Preliminary Injunction Against Seller of Gray Market Snack Food Products
On November 12, 2025, Judge King in the U.S. District Court for the Western District of Washington granted in part Haldiram India Ltd.’s (“Plaintiff” or “Haldiram”) motion for a preliminary injunction against Punjab Trading, Inc. (“Defendant” or “Punjab Trading”), a seller alleged to be importing and distributing gray market snack food products not authorized for sale in the United States. The court found that Haldiram was likely to succeed on the merits of its trademark infringement claim because the products at issue, which were intended for sale in India, were materially different from the versions intended for sale in the U.S., and for this reason were not genuine products when sold in the U.S. Although the court narrowed certain overbroad provisions in the requested order, it ultimately enjoined Punjab Trading from importing, selling, or assisting others in selling the non-genuine Haldiram products in the U.S. market.
