The hearing was moved since the government's attorney, Eric Hamilton, was already scheduled to attend a hearing before the same court on the original date of the hearing, May 22. Hamilton has already defended President Donald Trump's IEEPA tariff action in federal court, defending the duties before the Court of International Trade earlier this week (see 2505130052).
