It's legal to use the metric system anywhere in the United States. Contracts, deals, or court filings can use metric measurements. They can't be thrown out just for using metric units.
It's legal, throughout the United States, to use metric-system weights and measures.
No contract, business deal, or filing in any court can be considered invalid, or objected to, just because it uses metric weights or measures instead of another system.
