Before RICH, MAYER and RADER, Circuit Judges.
Sea-Land Service, Inc. appeals the judgment of the United States Court of International Trade granting the United States' motion to sever and dismiss 73 of Sea-Land's entries. The court held that Sea-Land did not timely commence suit challenging the United States Customs Service's denial of its protests over the amount of duty assessed on the entries. See Sea-Land Serv., Inc. v. United States, 735 F.Supp. 1059 (Ct. Int'l Trade 1990). We affirm on the basis of the court's opinion, which we adopt.
AFFIRMED.
