“ Juul has agreed to pay North Carolina $40 million to settle the first of a spate of lawsuits brought by states that claimed the company’s marketing practices fueled widespread addiction among young people to its high-nicotine e-cigarettes.
The settlement was announced on Monday by Josh Stein, the North Carolina attorney general, who sued the company in May of 2019. In the agreement, the company denies any wrongdoing or liability.
The consent decree requires Juul to sell its products only behind the counter in North Carolina stores, and to use third-party age verification systems for online sales. The order also commits Juul to sending teenage “mystery shoppers” to 1,000 stores each year, to check whether they are selling to minors.
It also bars the company from using models under age 35 in advertisements and states that no advertisements should be posted near schools.”
