1 week agoSupreme Court: Still no Patent Cases
The Supreme Court denied certiorari in all four patent cases on its October 6, 2025 order list.
Seven judges joined in a per curiam opinion basically ruling that IEEPA, the basis Trump used to impose the tariffs in question, did not authorize the fentanyl-related and trade deficit tariffs in question. Three of those judges - a Poppy Bush, an Obama, and a Biden appointee - joined in a concurring opinion written by another Biden appointee, Tiffany Cunningham, which held that IEEPA doesn't permit the President to impose any tariffs.
