On November 10, 2025, Plaintiff - a U.S. based importer of tires - filed this lawsuit in the U.S. Court of International Trade against U.S. Customs and Border Protection, commissioner Rodney Scott, and the United States. This lawsuit arose following President Trump's invocation of the International Emergency Economic Powers Act (IEEPA), through which he claimed authority to impose sweeping duties on nearly every foreign country. Plaintiff sought a declaration that IEEPA duties are unlawful, an injunction barring Defendants from further imposition of said duties, and a refund of all duties already paid.

This case is one of several dozen that were consolidated with AGS Company Automotive Solutions v. United States Customs and Border Protection, the lead case regarding IEEPA duty liquidation as of December 3, 2025. On December 23, that case was stayed pending the Supreme Court's decision in V.O.S. Selections v. Trump. For more IEEPA litigation, including additional cases consolidated with AGS Company Automotive Solutions v. United States Customs and Border Protection, see here.
