US supreme court declines to fast-track challenge to Trump tariffs

Justices deny request by toy company - which challenged president's trade policy - to expedite review of dispute

The US supreme court declined on Friday to speed up its consideration of whether to take up a challenge to Donald Trump's sweeping tariffs even before lower courts have ruled in the dispute.

The supreme court denied a request by a family-owned toy company, Learning Resources, that filed the legal challenge against Trump's tariffs to expedite the review of the dispute by the nation's top judicial body.
