A federal appeals court on Thursday said President Trump can implement his backup tariff plan…for now.

The Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit said Trump is likely to succeed on the merits.

Last month, the Federal Trade Court struck down President Trump’s backup tariff plan after the Supreme Court blocked his other tariffs.

The US Supreme Court recently struck down President Trump’s tariffs in a 6-3 decision.

The Supreme Court said President Trump does not have the authority to impose the tariffs under the International Emergency Economic Powers Act (IEEPA).

The high court’s decision only invalidated Trump’s tariffs under the IEEPA.

President Trump imposed a 10% global tariff as a backup plan.

A small business filed a lawsuit in the international trade court challenging President Trump’s global tariff.

Last month, the US Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit paused the lower court’s ruling while the panel has time to consider the legal arguments.

On Thursday, the federal appeals court ruled that President Trump’s 10% tariffs under Section 122 of the Trade Act can remain in place.

The 10% tariffs expire July 24 unless Congress extends them.
