U.S. Court of International Trade to Consider Nationwide Class Certification for IEEPA Tariff Refunds

The U.S. Court of International Trade is set to hear oral arguments today on a motion for Rule 23(b)(2) class certification in a case seeking to allow thousands of importers to recover tariffs unlawfully collected under the International Emergency Economic Powers Act (IEEPA). The Liberty Justice Center argues for a nationwide class remedy to ensure all affected importers can access the same refund process, regardless of their customs entries' liquidation status.
