Ninth Circuit Decision Underscores Increasing False Claims Act Risks to U.S. Importers

On June 23, 2025, the Ninth Circuit issued a long-awaited decision in Island Industries Inc. v.

2024 UFLPA Strategy Update: Forced Labor in the XUAR Remains Top Concern for U.S. Government

Congress enacted the UFLPA on December 23, 2021 in response to alleged forced labor violations occurring in the People’s Republic of China. The UFLPA supports U.S. Customs and Border Protection’s (CBP) enforcement of Section 307 of the Tariff Act of 1930. The act aims to prevent the importation of goods sourced and/or made in whole or in part with forced labor from China into the US by imposing a rebuttable presumption that holds that any goods “mined, produced, or manufactured wholly or in part” in the XUAR or “produced by an entity on the UFLPA Entity List” are prohibited from import into the US. The UFLPA’ s rebuttable presumption went into effect on June 21, 2022.
