According to Odaily, the Supreme Court is expected to soon rule on the legality of tariffs imposed by U.S. President Donald Trump, a decision that could significantly affect the scope of presidential authority. While lawyers believe a ruling this week is unlikely, most anticipate a decision by early 2026. Data from Polymarket indicates a 76% probability that the court will rule against the Trump administration, potentially overturning some tariffs imposed under the International Emergency Economic Powers Act (IEEPA). Analysts and lawyers are preparing for various scenarios, including: 1. A mixed ruling where the Supreme Court might declare the 'reciprocal' tariffs imposed under IEEPA illegal, while maintaining tariffs related to the flow of fentanyl. 2. A decision declaring IEEPA tariffs illegal, which would shift importers' focus to the refund of tariffs already paid if the court rules all or part of the IEEPA tariffs unlawful. 3. The court upholding the tariffs, which could mean maintaining the status quo for the market.

The Supreme Court may soon rule on the legality of Trump's tariffs, a decision that will have profound implications for the scope of the US president's power. Lawyers believe a ruling this week is unlikely, with most expecting it to be made in early 2026. Polymarket data shows a 76% chance of a court ruling against the Trump administration and at least overturning some of the tariffs imposed under IEEPA. However, analysts and lawyers are preparing by considering several scenarios, such as: 1. A mixed ruling: One possible path the Supreme Court might take is to rule the "reciprocal" tariffs imposed under IEEPA illegal while retaining the relevant tariffs on fentanyl flows. 2. A court ruling that IEEPA tariffs are illegal: If the court rules all or part of the IEEPA tariffs illegal, importers will focus on refunds of already paid tariffs. 3. A court upholding the tariffs: For the market, this could mean maintaining the status quo.
