The Future of Forced Labor: Enforcing the UFLPA in the Wake of Ninestar Corp. v. United States
Joshua Feldman
Joshua Feldman is a J.D. candidate at The University of Chicago Law School, Class of 2026.

He thanks Elizabeth Welsh, Liam Haffey, and the entire University of Chicago Law Review Online team for their support and feedback.

This Case Note summarizes the primary holdings surrounding Ninestar Corp, focusing on the resulting predicament for the FLETF. By revealing more information to regulated firms about its Entity List determination procedures, the FLETF could force firms to seek administrative remedy before they could access the courts, thereby retaining greater control over UFLPA enforcement; yet, in doing so, it may enable firms to circumvent Entity List designation. This Case Note ultimately concludes that forced labor enforcement regime is best served by greater transparency in the Entity List designation process.
