Identifier: CAC_CC_109_4_22_11_0024

Scope and Contents

Mark D. Poteet received a letter from Thomas N. Teela of the U.S. Customs Service in Los Angeles regarding an issue with duty charged upon his arrival in Los Angeles. After reviewing Poteet's declaration, it was determined that he was incorrectly assessed duty and a refund of $16.58 will be prepared. Teela apologized for the inconvenience and explained that the error was made by an inexperienced inspector who has since received additional training to prevent future mistakes. Poteet thanked James R. Jones, a representative in Congress, for his assistance in the matter.
