The End is Near: DCAA Projects End of Incurred Cost Backlog by FY 2018
Client Alert | 1 min read | 06.11.18
The Defense Contract Audit Agency (DCAA) recently made public its Fiscal Year 2017 Report to Congress, which, among other things, provides an update on incurred cost audits. According to DCAA, it is “on track to eliminate the backlog by the close of FY 2018” as it now has “under 3,000 incurred cost years in [such] backlog….” However, it is important to remember that DCAA does not consider an audit backlogged unless it is “older than two fiscal years.”
The report also covers other aspects of incurred cost audits (e.g., sustained audit exceptions), which are discussed more fully in our blog post on the topic.

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.
