Kansas to get $9.8M as part of settlement with JUUL Labs

Kansas is expected to receive nearly $10 million as part of a multistate agreement in principle with JUUL Labs, resolving a two-year investigation into the e-cigarette manufacturer’s marketing and sales practices, Kansas Attorney General Derek Schmidt said today. Schmidt said the settlement would force JUUL to comply with strict injunctive terms limiting their marketing and sales practices. Kansas is expected to receive $9.8 million as part of the $438.5 million settlement between JUUL and 34 states. The money will be paid over six to 10 years. States are finalizing and executing the settlement documents, which should completed in approximately three to four weeks.
