According to local time on February 27, the U.S. Department of Justice asked the United States Court of Appeals to temporarily delay the issuance of an order to enforce tariff refunds. Previously, after the Supreme Court handed down a ruling last week unfavorable to the Trump administration, some small businesses urged the court to order the government to refund the tariffs that had already been collected as soon as possible. The documents show that the Trump administration did not deny that it may need to pay the refunds and interest, but asked the court to “delay the issuance of the enforcement order for 90 days” so that the executive and legislative branches have time to assess next options. The Department of Justice said that the complexity of the issue requires “a careful process rather than a rushed push.” (CCTV News)

In local time on February 27, the U.S. Department of Justice asked the United States Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit to temporarily halt the issuance of an order requiring execution of tariff refunds. Previously, after some small businesses called on the court to order the government to refund the tariffs it has already collected as soon as possible following last week’s Supreme Court ruling that was unfavorable to the Trump administration, court filings showed that the Trump administration did not deny that it might need to pay refunds and interest, but asked the court to “stay for 90 days the entry of an enforcement order,” so that the executive and legislative branches would have time to assess follow-up options. The Department of Justice said the complexity of the issue calls for “a careful process, not a rushed push.” (CCTV News)
