Michigan’s ban on flavored vaping products may be headed to the state Supreme Court, after a judge on Tuesday granted a preliminary injunction to vape store owners.
In approving the suspension Tuesday, Michigan Court of Claims Judge Cynthia Diane Stephens said the owner of an Upper Peninsula vape shop and a West Michigan e-cigarette supplier in Saginaw had shown they would suffer irreparable harm under the state’s new ban on flavored e-cigarettes and other products.
“This means so much, I don’t know what to say,” said Marc Slis, owner of 906 Vapor in Houghton.
Less than an hour after hearing the news of the decision, Slis said he was heading back to his shuttered shop to reopen it immediately.
