Hoo boy.
Me, checking to see if the U.S. government has any money left over to be handing out "refunds":
'Plaintiffs seek for themselves a full refund from Defendants of all IEEPA duties Plaintiffs have paid to the United States,' lawyers for FedEx said in the complaint, filed Monday in the Court of International Trade in New York.
The filing did not specify how much the company is seeking to be refunded. It names the U.S. Customs and Border Protection, the agency's commissioner, Rodney Scott, and the United States of America as the defendants.
Last week's Supreme Court decision to rule against Trump's specific application of tariffs (he has since announced new tariffs using a different law) has opened the door for hundreds of previously filed lawsuits to move forward.
Hundreds of companies have filed lawsuits over the last year to seek refunds, effectively staking their place in line while the Supreme Court took up the tariffs case. While the Supreme Court did not outline a clear process for refunds, it did make clear that the cases belong in the Court of International Trade in New York, where the bulk of the cases have been filed.
Many people are confused about what tariffs FedEx actually paid.
