Electronic cigarette company Juul must pay $462m to six states and Washington DC, marking the largest multi-state settlement with the company following claims that Juul unlawfully targeted an addictive vaping product to minors.
The settlement with states including California and New York means Juul has settled in suits with nearly every state and local governments across the US, totaling roughly $3bn. Juul’s settlement does not admit wrongdoing.
