Question juridique clé
Whether the complaint was admissible, including the request for a declaratory ruling on the base fee.
Solution extraite
The complaint was admissible, but the declaratory request lacked a protected interest because a performance judgment could be issued on the disputed levy.
Motifs extraits
The FDF was entitled to appeal because the act could affect enforcement of federal AML law; however, declaratory relief was unnecessary since the dispute could be decided by a claim for payment.
