The U.S. International Trade Commission has issued an order that could lead to an import ban on Apple Watches.
The Commission imposed an import ban last week in response to a judge’s ruling from January that Apple had violated medical tech company Masimo’s patent rights by using its blood-oxygen reading technology in some versions of the Apple Watch.
The White House will have 60 days to decide whether to veto the decision. If the administration does not veto the ruling after 60 days, then Apple Watches will be slapped with an import ban.Apple also will have the option to appeal the decision to the U.S. Court of Appeals after the presidential review period has expired.
“Masimo has wrongly attempted to use the ITC to keep a potentially lifesaving product from millions of U.S. consumers while making way for their own watch that copies Apple,” Apple said in a statement.
