OPINION
Intervenor Rubinetterie A. Giacomini, S.P.A. (Giacomini), moves for a stay of enforcement of this court’s opinion and order remanding this case to the Department of Commerce International Trade Administration (ITA) for issuance of an amended final determination and corresponding anti-dumping duty order. CIT Rule 62(d) (provides for stays pending appeal upon filing of supersedeas bond); Badger-Powhatan v. United States, 10 CIT —, 633 F.Supp. 1364 (1986), appeal docketed, No. 86-1251 (Fed.Cir. May 13, 1986). Plaintiff Badger-Powhatan opposes the motion. Defendant ITA does not oppose the motion.
In the appealed opinion, the court held that ITA erred in failing to recalculate the less than fair value (LTFV) margin of certain brass fire protection products imported from Italy, after the International Trade Commission determined that only a subclass of the class of merchandise sold at LTFV is causing material injury to an industry in the United States. ITA was ordered to recalculate the margin based on information available in the agency record. An amendment to the final determination and antidumping order containing the recalculated margin was issued on May 15, 1986. 51 Fed.Reg. 17,783 (1986).
Defendant ITA contends that intervenor’s appeal prevents ITA from implementing the latest final determination and antidumping duty order until a final judicial decision has been reached, citing Melamine Chemicals, Inc. v. United States, 732 F.2d 924 (Fed.Cir.1984). In Melamine, the Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit held that “[ajbsent an injunction of liquidation, 19 U.S.C. § 1516a requires that the challenged determination shall govern the liquidation of entries ‘while the litigation is proceeding.’ ” Id. at 934 (quoting S.Rep.No. 249, 96th Cong., 1st Sess. 248, reprinted in 1979 U.S. Code Cong. & Ad. News 381, 634).1 The court also indicated *346that a “final court decision” would govern over the challenged determination. The court notes that Melamine involved the question of whether a challenged negative determination of the agency should govern the process of liquidation pending appeal of a decision rescinding the determination. It did not address the question raised by intervenor of whether the agency should undertake other administrative procedures consistent with appealed CIT opinions. Whether or not the decision reached by the CIT here may be considered a controlling final court decision, nothing in Melamine prevents ITA from amending the final determination and order at this point in the proceedings, as it has done, and, as discussed infra, the agency must implement its new determination.
The essential issue here is which agency determination governs the amount of estimated antidumping duties importers must deposit on entries occurring between the time of this court’s order and the last judicial decision rendered in this case. The court rejects defendant’s contention that Melamine mandates a stay pending appeal in this case, for at least two reasons. First, Melamine addressed the issue of when a challenged determination should govern the process of liquidation, pursuant to section 1516a(c)(l). This provision does not apply in this case because neither of the determinations here will result in any immediate liquidations. In the instant case, duties will not actually be assessed until after the first annual review is completed, and that annual review may alter the results of the present determinations. See 19 U.S.C. § 1675(a) (1982).2 Therefore, it is incorrect to assume that the antidumping determination and order will govern liquidation if no stay pending appeal is granted. Because Melamine involved a challenged final negative determination, liquidation could have occurred at any time following issuance of the determination. The CIT’s recision order and subsequent suspension order interfered with this liquidation process. Such a late imposed suspension is not the equivalent of an injunction which results from a fully considered motion for preliminary injunction, sought at the outset of a case. The Melamine court stated it was concerned about a “yoyo” effect on liquidations. Melamine, 732 F.2d at 934. In Melamine, liquidations were subject to a start-stop effect. In this case, no liquidation could have occurred and none will occur until the annual review is completed.
Second, this case presents an unusual situation in which subsequent to plaintiff’s filing of suit challenging a final determination, ITA altered its position to agree with plaintiff that the challenged determination was incorrect. If intervenor had not already entered the suit on behalf of ITA’s original position, the case would have been dismissed and defendant would have recalculated the LTFV margin in precisely the way it has now done pursuant to the court’s order. Inasmuch as ITA now acknowledges that the challenged determination was incorrect, requiring deposits to be made in accordance with that determination *347constitutes deference to a position supported only by intervenor, and disavowed by both the agency and the court. Although the court finds Melamine not controlling on the issue of the amount of deposit required, the Melamine facts present an interesting parallel to the facts at hand. In Melamine, ITA initially issued an affirmative final determination. On reconsideration, and after a hearing and additional briefing, ITA amended its original findings. This amended final negative determination was the subject of the suit. Melamine, 732 F.2d at 925. The Federal Circuit considered this amended determination to be the determination which controlled the liquidation process. Id. at 934-35. For purposes of the pending motion, the court finds no basis for distinguishing between a determination which is amended by the agency on its own because of errors in the original determination and one which is amended after the court agrees with the agency that amendment is necessary. Thus, even if Melamine has broader application than the court believes it does, that is, that the rule of Melamine applies to the entire entry process, a stay pending appeal is not required in this case. Given these factors, the court finds that the most recent determination and order must govern the amount of deposits to be made while the appeal is pending, unless a stay of the judgment is appropriate under CIT Rule 62 or otherwise.
As indicated, intervenor contends that it is entitled to a stay of the judgment as of right under CIT Rule 62(d). Rule 62(d) provides that a party who has appealed “may obtain a stay” by giving a supersede-as bond.3 This language is generally interpreted as standing for the proposition that “the appellant who files a satisfactory supersedeas bond [is entitled] to a stay of money judgment as a matter of right.” Federal Prescription Service, Inc. v. American Pharmaceutical Association, 636 F.2d 755, 759 (D.C.Cir.1980) (emphasis omitted) (citing American Manufactures Insurance Co. v. American Broadcasting Paramount Theatres, Inc., 87 S.Ct. 1, 3, 17 L.Ed.2d 37 (1966) (Harlan, J., Circuit Justice)); see American Grape Growers Alliance for Fair Trade v. United States, 9 CIT —, Slip Op. 85-104 at 4 (Oct. 7, 1985). Compare J. Perez & Cia, Inc. v. United States, 578 F.Supp. 1318, 1320 (D.P.R.1984) (“Traditionally, the supersedeas bond has been confined to money judgments from which a writ of execution can issue.”) (citing Hovey v. McDonald, 109 U.S. 150, 3 S.Ct. 136, 27 L.Ed. 888 (1883)), aff'd, 747 F.2d 813 (1st Cir.1984) and 7 J. Moore & J. Lucas, Moore’s Federal Practice ¶ 62.06 (2d ed. 1985) (“Under Rule 62(d), a party taking an appeal from a money judgment rendered against him in a district court can stay proceedings to enforce that judgment pending appeal by furnishing a supersede-as bond.”) with Donovan v. Fall River Foundry Co., 696 F.2d 524, 526 (7th Cir.1982) (“The reference in Rule 62(d) to supersedeas bond suggests that had the framers thought about the point they would have limited the right to automatic stay to cases where the judgment being appealed from was a ‘money judgment.’ ”).
Intervenor contends that the order of this court in Slip Op. 86-38 is a money judgment because “it will result in the payment of additional amounts of antidumping duty deposits on future entries of pressure restricting valves and Siamese connectors.” Memorandum in Support of Intervenor, Rubinetterie A. Giacomini, S.P.A., for Stay Pending Appeal at 3. Plaintiff argues that such is not the case because this court’s order “did not itself grant a money judgment, or even calculate and impose estimated duties.” Plaintiff’s Opposition to Inter*348venor’s Motion for Stay Pending Appeal at 4.
A money judgment “adjudges a defendant ... absolutely liable to pay a sum certain to the plaintiff, ... awards execution therefor, and ... may be fully satisfied by the defendant by paying into court the amount adjudged, with interest and costs.” Fuller v. Aylesworth, 75 F. 694, 701 (6th Cir.1896). Initially, the court notes that the judgment in this case does not comport with this classic definition.4 As noted supra, the final determination and antidumping duty order will not result in the actual assessment of antidumping duties, rather importers will be required to deposit estimated antidumping duties. 19 U.S.C. § 1673e(a)(3) (1982). The permanent exchange of money will occur only after a periodic review of the duty. See supra note 2 and accompanying text. Moreover, the use of a supersedeas bond to stay the remand order in this case would not further the policy considerations underlying Rule 62(d).
“The purpose of a supersedeas bond is to preserve the status quo while protecting the non-appealing party’s rights pending appeal.” Poplar Grove Planting and Refining Co. v. Bache Halsey Stuart, Inc., 600 F.2d 1189, 1190-91 (5th Cir.1979). The bond protects a judgment debtor from the risk of satisfying the judgment, only to be unable to obtain restitution if reversal occurs on appeal. Id. at 1191. Likewise, the bond secures the judgment creditor against the possibility of loss sustained as a result of being forced to forego execution on the judgment during the course of an ineffectual appeal. Id. As noted above, the order challenged in this case remanded the case to ITA for issuance of an amended final determination and antidumping duty order requiring certain deposits. Badger-Powhatan v. United States, 10 CIT —, 633 F.Supp. 1364 (1986), appeal docketed, No. 86-1251 (Fed.Cir. May 13, 1986). This order is not, however, the type of money judgment for which an automatic stay is warranted for the purposes of Rule 62(d). First, as plaintiff notes, intervenor is not responsible for paying antidumping duties or interim deposits. For that reason, among others, no judgment may be entered directing intervenor to pay a specific sum. The responsibility for eventual payment falls to the importers of intervenor’s goods. 19 U.S.C. § 1673g (1982).5 Such importers are not parties to this suit. The filing of a bond by intervenor will not guarantee the payment of the duties by those required to pay, and the statutory scheme is carefully designed to require payment from importers, so that the equalizing purposes of the act are carried out. See 19 U.S.C. § 1673g(b)(3), (4) (1982) (importer must state under oath that “he is not an exporter, or if he is an exporter,” must indicate the exporter's sales price of the merchandise and must pay, or agree to pay on demand, antidumping duties); S.Rep. No. *349249, 96th Cong., 1st Sess. 37, reprinted in 1979 U.S.Code Cong. & Ad.News 381, 423 (Dumping is one of “the most pernicious practices which distort international trade to the disadvantage of United States commerce. ... Antidumping duties are special duties imposed to offset the amount of the difference between the fair value of the merchandise and the price for which it is sold in the United States, i.e., the dumping margin.”). Second, as indicated by such legislative history, the antidumping act is not designed to compensate plaintiff directly for damages or to raise revenue for the United States. Posting a bond here, therefore, would not preserve for the prevailing parties the benefits of the court’s decision applying the antidumping laws. Thus, the posting of a bond will not serve any of the purposes that normally make a stay as of right available when a money judgment is involved.
Having determined that intervenor is not entitled to a stay as of right, the court must determine whether intervenor has demonstrated that it is entitled to a discretionary stay. In determining whether the interests of justice will be served by the grant of a stay, the court must consider the following four factors:
(1) whether the petitioner is likely to prevail on the merits of his appeal, (2) whether, without a stay, the petitioner will be irreparably injured, (3) whether issuance of a stay will substantially harm other parties interested in the proceeding, and (4) wherein lies the public interest.
Philipp Brothers, Inc. v. United States, 10 CIT —, 640 F.Supp. 261 at 262 (1986) (quoting McSurely v. McClellan, 697 F.2d 309, 317 (D.C.Cir.1982), cert. denied, — U.S. -, 106 S.Ct. 525, 88 L.Ed.2d 457 (1985)).
The court finds the first factor to be of limited significance in this determination. While intervenor’s argument is not frivolous, the court has no reason to doubt the validity of its original holding. See Philipp Brothers, 10 CIT at —, 640 F.Supp. at 264; American Grape Growers Alliance for Fair Trade v. United States, 9 CIT —, Slip Op. 85-104 at 5-6 (Oct. 7, 1985). Thus, the focus of the court’s discussion will be on the remaining factors.
The second, and critical, factor requires the movant to affirmatively demonstrate that it will suffer irreparable harm unless the stay is granted. Intervenor has not even attempted to meet this burden, stating that granting the stay “would work no harm or prejudice to any party.” Memorandum in Support of Motion of Intervenor, Rubinetterie A. Giacomini, S.P.A., for Stay Pending Appeal at 7. Intervenor has not met its burden of claiming irreparable harm, much less its burden of substantiating the claim. See Wisconsin Gas Co. v. FERC, 758 F.2d 669, 674 (D.C.Cir.1985).
Furthermore, the mere statement that no party will be harmed is insufficient to satisfy intervenor’s burden of establishing that the stay will not harm any other party. Kansas City Royals Baseball Corp. v. Major League Baseball Players Association, 409 F.Supp. 233, 268 (W.D. Mo.), aff'd, 532 F.2d 615 (8th Cir.1976). In fact, if anything, this factor weighs against intervenor, in that plaintiff has argued in its brief that it will suffer harm if a stay is granted. Intervenor has not disputed this claim. Thus, intervenor has also failed to provide any basis for a finding in its favor on the third factor, that of absence of harm to parties other than the movant if the stay is granted.
Finally, intervenor claims that granting of a stay would be in the public interest because it would facilitate a lawful appeal without causing harm to any party. Even if there is no such harm, this argument virtually eliminates the fourth factor as a useful standard and overlooks the fact that “[a] stay pending appeal is always an extraordinary remedy.” Golden Eagle Refining Co. v. United States, 4 Cl.Ct. 622, 624 (1984) (quoting Brotherhood of Railway and Steamship Clerks, Freight Handlers, Express and Station Employees v. National Mediation Board, 374 F.2d 269, 275 (D.C.Cir.1966)). There is some public *350interest in denying stays pending appeal “because they interrupt the ordinary process of judicial review and postpone relief for the prevailing party.” Dellums. v. Smith, 577 F.Supp. 1456, 1457 (N.D.Cal.1984); see also Philipp Brothers, supra, 10 CIT at —, 640 F.Supp. at 266. Intervenor has offered no substantial public interest reason for the granting of a stay. In its own words, no party will be harmed by the granting of, or the denial of, a stay. In such a situation the public interest in following the ordinary methods of proceeding must prevail.
Intervenor has failed to demonstrate that a stay is available as a matter of right or should be granted at the discretion of the court. Intervenor’s motion for a stay pending appeal is denied.
