Judge Halts Ohio’s THC Ban

A federal judge has temporarily halted Ohio’s new law banning hemp-derived THC products, allowing companies like Urban Artifact to resume selling THC-infused drinks for at least two weeks—provided they comply with the 2018 Farm Bill. The ruling followed a lawsuit from ten companies arguing the law violates interstate commerce rights. Urban Artifact’s co-owner called the decision a relief, as these drinks are now outselling alcohol in some markets. Demand is surging across states like Kentucky and Indiana, signaling a major shift in consumer habits. But with the order expiring June 29th, companies remain cautious about production, leaving some flavors scarce. For now, shelves are stocked with popular flavors like cherry cola and lemonade—proof that the legal battle over these products is far from over.
