Ohio Judge Pauses THC Drink Ban | Columbus News

A federal judge in Ohio has granted a temporary reprieve to ten businesses selling THC drinks and hemp products, halting enforcement of a new state law that bans them — at least for now. The judge ruled the businesses could face severe harm if forced to stop selling while the legal battle continues. These companies are suing prosecutors, arguing the state law wrongly classifies federally legal hemp products as illegal marijuana. While the ruling is a victory for the businesses and their supporters, the Ohio Attorney General warns it creates market confusion and risks exposing children to unregulated products. With a major federal law change looming in November that will further restrict THC content, the legal battle is far from over — and this injunction is just one step in a high-stakes fight shaping Ohio’s future hemp regulations.
