(The Epoch Times)—The U.S. Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit on June 11 temporarily extended a pause of a lower ruling that struck down President Donald Trump’s 10-percent global tariffs.
The appeals court granted the Trump administration’s motion to extend the stay of an injunction preventing collection of the tariffs in an unsigned order.
This means the federal government may continue collecting the tariffs under Section 122 of the Trade Act of 1974 for the time being as the current appeal plays out.
On May 7, the U.S. Court of International Trade struck down the global tariffs. The court ruled 2–1 in favor of small businesses and several states that contested the tariffs, which had taken effect on Feb. 24. The dissenting judge said it was premature to rule on the dispute.
The challengers had argued that the tariffs were the Trump administration’s attempt to sidestep a U.S. Supreme Court ruling that struck down the president’s tariffs levied under the International Emergency Economic Powers Act.
This is a developing story and will be updated.
