It likely would leave the question of refunds to a lower court, most likely the Court of International Trade, which first took up

uh this case there's a few different wonky points that i had written down here on how this could ultimately end up happening one thing to know is that there's something known as the liquidation process which basically is the statute of limitation that a company can ask for its money back that's 314 days so some of those tariffs imposed on china have actually been uh imposed longer than that so those companies wouldn't get those back but by and large i think we're still within

that timeframe for these companies to ask for those requests.

Right.

And we've already heard telegraphed from the administration that they're going to pull on these other federal authorities.

Some of them are already in place.

We talk a lot about Section 232, those national security tariffs that the administration has put forward on some of those

Critical sectors, steel, aluminum, critical minerals, and a lot of those other areas that have been a focus of the Trump administration when it comes to countering China.

We could also see Section 301 investigations.

That's over unfair trade practices.

We saw a lot of those imposed on China under the first Trump administration.

Think allegations of IP protection violations.

As one example.

And then there's some lesser known ones like Section 338 that hasn't been used since the 1940s.

I also have Section 201 here.

Tariffs imposed on goods that cause injury to domestic industry.

There's a lot.

But basically the crux to think of this is that the Trump administration likes IEPA because that's a lot.

It's a lot more flexible.

It's a lot more broad-based.
