Federal appeals court rejects Trump administration's push to delay start of tariff refund process after Supreme Court ruling

The Federal Circuit ordered the case back to the trade court to resume refund claims after the Supreme Court invalidated tariffs that generated over $130 billion, affecting thousands of lawsuits.

  • On Monday, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit denied President Donald Trump's request to delay tariff-refund litigation and remanded the cases to the U.S. Court of International Trade without explanation.
  • On Friday, the government asked for a pause of up to four months, framed as a 90-day delay, to wait for the Supreme Court's final judgment and allow political branches time to consider options, the U.S. Justice Department said.
  • With the appeals court order, the trade court's pause is lifted so refund suits by importers and small businesses can proceed, though the trade court has not yet signalled how it will proceed.
  • The administration has signaled refunds are inevitable but President Donald Trump added uncertainty by saying `I guess it has to get litigated`, with the Supreme Court likely taking 32 days to close the case.
