Consumers sued AMAZON.COM INC on Friday to recover hundreds of millions of dollars in tariff costs passed through higher prices. It follows a 6-3 United States Supreme Court ruling in February that invalidated tariffs imposed under the International Emergency Economic Powers Act. Investors face potential liability as the lawsuit alleges Amazon withheld refunds to maintain political favor.
