Federal appeals court temporarily pauses lower court ruling that declared Trump's 10% global tariffs unlawful
A U.S. Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit issued an administrative stay of a lower court decision from the Court of International Trade that had ruled Trump's 10% global tariffs unlawful. The stay temporarily halts enforcement of the lower court's order while the appeals court considers the case. The court did not rule on the merits of Trump's appeal and is still determining whether to grant a longer-term stay pending full litigation.

The split, in one line
Both outlets report the same administrative stay without dispute. ABC News emphasizes the legal time-out nature and the court's non-position on merits; Reuters simply reports the pause, with less contextual framing.
