E-cigarette company Juul to pay $40 million in North Carolina lawsuit settlement
CNN
E-cigarette company Juul Labs will pay $40 million and make changes to its business practices to settle the first state lawsuit that alleged it marketed to teens, North Carolina attorneys announced on Monday.
The settlement follows a lawsuit filed in 2019 by North Carolina Attorney General Josh Stein that claimed Juul marketed its products to children and misled the public about risks associated with those products. The order issued Monday will restrict the e-cigarette manufacturer's sales and advertising in the state, and provide funds to help those addicted to e-cigarettes.More Related News
