A federal appeals court on Tuesday night agreed to impose a stay on President Donald Trump’s tariffs while the full appeals process plays out, blocking a lower court’s ruling that struck down the tariffs.
The order comes after the U.S. Court of International Trade struck down most of the president’s “Liberation Day” tariffs last month, ruling that the president overstepped his authority.
The new stay does not impact Trump’s sector-based tariffs on things like aluminum and steel, but does impact his 10% global baseline tariff, along with the tariffs he imposed on China and other countries.
“Both sides have made substantial arguments on the merits. Having considered the traditional stay factors… the court concludes a stay is warranted under the circumstances,” the judges wrote in the ruling, CNN reported.
The judges also expedited the underlying case, instructing both sides to prepare for oral arguments on July 31.
