President Donald Trump has asked the US Supreme Court to urgently review a federal appeals court decision that struck down most of the tariffs enacted during his administration.

The petition, filed last week, seeks to speed up the process so that arguments could be heard as early as November, far sooner than the typical timeline that would extend into next year.

The request follows a 7-4 ruling from the US Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit, which found that Trump overstepped his authority in imposing broad trade levies on nearly all foreign partners. The lower court set an October 14 deadline to dismantle the tariffs, though legal observers expect the Supreme Court to pause that order while the case is pending.

Billions of dollars are at stake. If the ruling stands, the government may be required to return tariff revenue collected since the policy began, potentially unraveling key elements of Trump’s trade strategy. Supporters of the former president argue that reversing the tariffs could undermine both economic and diplomatic initiatives.

The ruling applies specifically to the wide-ranging “Liberation Day” tariffs but leaves intact separate measures, including those on steel and aluminum imports.

The team at Unique await the final verdict with great interest, since the Supreme Court ruling could have a major impact on global trade.
