May 28 (UPI) -- A three-judge panel on Wednesday struck down President Donald Trump's unilateral tariffs, including 10% imposed on most U.S. trading partners, calling them "contrary to law."
Despite several lawsuits filed in different courts, this is the first time a federal court has blocked them.
The New York-based Court of International Trade, in a 49-page opinion, said the International Emergency Economic Powers Act does not give him the "unlimited" power to levy across-the-board tariffs.
The Trump administration can appeal the decision to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit and ultimately the Supreme Court.
