US appeal court denies Trump bid to delay tariff refund lawsuits
AI Summary
A federal appeal court denied US President Donald Trump's request to delay lawsuits related to refunds of his tariffs, allowing the cases to proceed in a lower court. The Supreme Court previously struck down many of Trump's global tariffs, opening the door for companies to sue for their money back. As of late 2025, the tariffs had generated over $130 billion for the US government. The Trump administration sought a four-month delay before litigation on refunds could be brought up again. The appeal court denied this request, with one group of small businesses calling the demand "plainly unreasonable". The case will now proceed in the US Court of International Trade.
