New York, New York--(Newsfile Corp. - August 13, 2024) - Josh Kesselman, founder of HBI International, the company behind RAW Rolling Papers, has announced a significant legal victory in their ongoing litigation with Central Coast Agriculture, Inc. The United States Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit has denied Central Coast Agriculture's petition for a rehearing by the full court. This means the case will not be reviewed by an 11-judge panel, but rather stands with the decision made by the original three-judge panel.
RAW Founder, Josh Kesselman.
This latest decision demonstrates the strength of RAW's legal arguments and further validates the initial ruling by the Ninth Circuit. That ruling rejected Central Coast Agriculture's suggestion that RAW rolling papers are "drug paraphernalia" and reaffirmed the trial court's decision that RAW's rolling papers and other smoking products are not prohibited by the Controlled Substances Act. The denial of a further hearing by the Ninth Circuit means that the court's decision in favor of RAW remains intact, thus preserving a crucial win for Josh Kesselman and the company.
This ruling reaffirmed that RAW products are not "drug paraphernalia"
A spokesperson for HBI International, RAW's parent company, said of the ruling, "We are pleased with the Ninth Circuit's decision to deny the rehearing petition. This outcome reaffirms our commitment to protecting our business interests and upholding the integrity of our operations. We will continue to focus on providing high-quality products to our customers while defending our rights in the legal arena."
This recent legal victory is a testament to Josh Kesselman and RAW's dedication to fair business practices. It proves Kesselman's commitment to keeping the company at the forefront of the smoking accessory industry.
