The Trump administration on Monday asked a U.S. court for a stay on an unfavorable ruling regarding its 10% global tariff, a move intended to allow the federal government to proceed with its appeal process. Previously, the U.S. Court of International Trade (CIT) had ruled against the tariff measure on May 8, though it did not completely halt the collection of the duties. The Trump administration officially filed an appeal the same day. If the court grants the stay, the 10% global tariff will be reimposed on three importers who had sued over the government's policy. The 10% global tariff was implemented in February. The administration pursued the new global tariff policy under Section 122 of the Trade Act of 1974 after the U.S. Supreme Court invalidated most of its 2025 tariff measures. The current tariff measure is set to expire in July unless extended by Congress.
