In a victory for importers and a setback for the Trump administration, the Court of International Trade struck down a second round of worldwide tariffs that the president ordered to replace import levies that were outlawed by the U.S. Supreme Court.

The court's decision was limited to two importers who challenged the tariffs, along with the state of Washington. It was not immediately clear whether other importers would have to keep paying the levies.

"That's a very good question and one we've sort of been wrestling with," said Jeffrey Schwab, who represented the importers on behalf of the Liberty Justice Center. "It's not entirely clear and probably will depend on what happens now."
