Drone giant DJI has filed an appeal against a US District Court’s opinion that continued to designate the company as a “Chinese Military Company” by the US Department of Defense. On October 13, DJI announced that it has filed an appeal against the district court’s decision last month in DJI vs. US Department of Defense.
DJI has been listed on a US Department of Defense blacklist that prevents the drones from being used by federal employees since 2022. Last month, a District of Columbia District Court upheld the list, despite only agreeing with two of the Department of Defense’s assertions.
