Appeals court halts ban on Apple Watch sales
Apple Wins Temporary Pause on Apple Watch Ban
Apple scored a small victory on Wednesday as an appeals court in Washington granted a temporary stay on the ban of selling Apple Watches in the United States. This means that Apple can continue selling the popular Series 9 and Ultra 2 watches while the court reviews their motion for a longer pause on the ban during the appeals process.
The ban was initially imposed by the International Trade Commission (ITC) due to a patent dispute between Apple and medical technology company Masimo. The dispute centered around Apple’s implementation of a blood oxygen tracker in their devices. The ITC ruled in favor of Masimo, resulting in the ban.
Apple had hoped for a veto from the White House, but their request was declined by U.S. trade representative Katherine Tai on Tuesday.
The ITC now has until January 10 to respond to Apple’s motion, and both Apple and Masimo have yet to comment on the matter.
