Following the Supreme Court's decision to strike down certain tariffs, the Trump administration, via the Justice Department, has indicated that processing tariff refunds for businesses will be a lengthy process. This announcement comes as numerous companies seek refunds, joining existing lawsuits filed in anticipation of the ruling. Former President Trump expressed his dissatisfaction with the Supreme Court's decision and questioned the possibility of a rehearing. Despite Trump's comments, the Justice Department has not stated whether it intends to pursue a rehearing of the case. The refunds stem from tariffs that the court deemed unlawful, leading to a surge in refund claims from affected businesses.
