NEW YORK, May 11 (Reuters) - President Donald Trump's administration ‌on Monday asked a U.S. ‌court to pause its ruling against the ​administration's 10% global tariff while the federal government pursues an appeal.

• The U.S. trade court ruled against ‌the new ⁠tariffs on May 8, but did not widely block their ⁠collection

• The Trump administration appealed on Friday

• If the trade court ​pauses its ​ruling, tariffs ​would resume for ‌three importers who sued over the tariffs

• The 10% global tariff was imposed in February, after the U.S. Supreme Court shot down most ‌of the tariffs ​that Trump imposed in ​2025

• ​The 10% global tariffs are ‌scheduled to expire in ​July, ​unless extended by Congress

• The latest global tariffs were imposed under ​Section 122 ‌of the Trade Act of ​1974
