NEW YORK, Aug. 29 (Xinhua) — Most of the global tariffs imposed by U.S. President Donald Trump have been struck down by a federal appeals court, which ruled that the White House chief abused his presidential powers in imposing them. The judges upheld the tariffs, sending the case back to a lower court for further action, Bloomberg reported on Friday.
The U.S. Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit on Friday upheld an earlier ruling by the Court of International Trade that found Trump had improperly used emergency legislation to impose tariffs. But the judges sent the case back to a lower court to determine whether it applies to everyone affected by the tariffs or just the parties involved in the case, the article said.
“The decision undermines the foundation of his /D. Trump – Xinhua/ aggressive trade policy that has reshaped the US economic relations with many countries around the world,” the New York Post wrote on Friday.
The ruling extends uncertainty over whether Trump's tariffs will ultimately remain in place. The case was expected to go to the Supreme Court for a final ruling, Bloomberg writes.
"Trump will almost certainly appeal the ruling to the Supreme Court. The appeals court has stayed its ruling until Oct. 14 to give the Trump administration time to ask the Supreme Court to hear the case," CNBC reported.
The Trump administration says the International Emergency Economic Powers Act (IEEPA) gives the president the power to impose tariffs of any size on specific countries if he deems it necessary to respond to an emergency in the United States, reporters say.
A lower federal trade court in late May ruled that position was wrong and struck down all of Trump's IEEPA-based tariffs, including the "equivalent" tariffs announced in early April. The Federal Circuit quickly stayed that ruling pending Trump's appeal, CNBC reported. -0-
