CIT certifies importer class in IEEPA tariff refund suit
The U.S. Court of International Trade certified a class of importers who paid tariffs imposed under the International Emergency Economic Powers Act between Feb. 1, 2025, and Feb. 19, 2026, excluding those who filed separate lawsuits, in a slip order issued Thursday. The court set an Oct. 22 deadline for proposed scheduling of additional filings and a closed conference for Oct. 13, and said certification is intended to lead to liquidation or reliquidation of entries and refunds to importers of record.
