What happened
A federal judge put Lollicup USA's Oregon EPR class action on hold following an appeal by the National Association of Wholesaler-Distributors. The same judge had previously upheld the constitutionality of the state's packaging EPR law and is overseeing the Lollicup case. Key next steps in the legal proceedings are anticipated between December and January.
Why it matters
This pause delays the resolution of the class action, which is tied to the broader legal challenges against the state's packaging EPR law.
Who is affected
Converters, suppliers, brand-owner packaging buyers, and industry investors operating in or affected by Oregon packaging regulations.
