Abstract
Following months of refusal by the United States to agree to new appointments to the World Trade Organization's Appellate Body (AB) as the terms of appointees expired, in mid-December 2019 the number of sitting AB members dropped to one. Since appeals require at least three AB members, the WTO appeals function became essentially defunct.
