Germany Bans Marijuana Use in Englischer Garten and Hofgarten
Germany's Englischer Garten and Hofgarten Bayreuth will ban the use of marijuana starting Thursday, according to Radio Plassenburg.

According to Radio Plassenburg, starting this Thursday (May 9), the English Garden in Munich and the Hofgarten Bayreuth will prohibit the use of marijuana.

 

The new regulations announce that starting on Thursday (9th), "the use and heating of vaporized marijuana products, including e-cigarettes, vaporizers or similar products for this purpose, will be prohibited."

 

Recently, the Cabinet announced a ban on cannabis use in these two parks, as well as a ban on cannabis during public holidays and beer gardens. However, the latter requires a modification of the law, which will take some time. In response, the Christian Social Union (CSU) and Free Voters Party jointly submitted a bill to Parliament on Tuesday (the 7th) to expedite the process of amending this regulation.

 

The new regulations should be passed before the summer recess, aiming to limit as much as possible the possibility of using marijuana after partial legalization nationwide.

U.S. Fifth Circuit Vacates NicQuid Vape MDO, Says FDA Comparative-Efficacy Standard Violated APA Procedures
U.S. Fifth Circuit Vacates NicQuid Vape MDO, Says FDA Comparative-Efficacy Standard Violated APA Procedures
According to VitalLaw on August 27, 2026, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit vacated an FDA marketing denial order (MDO) against NicQuid LLC, ruling that the agency’s comparative-efficacy standard for electronic nicotine delivery system (ENDS) applications had become a substantive rule requiring notice-and-comment rulemaking under the Administrative Procedure Act (APA). The court did not reject FDA’s authority to compare the public health benefits and risks of flavored vapes, but held that the agency could not establish a broadly binding standard through informal adjudications. The case was remanded to FDA for further proceedings.

U.S. Customs Plan to Require Foreign Export Declarations Could Deal ‘Devastating’ Blow to China’s Vape Exports, Logistics gl Expert Says
U.S. Customs Plan to Require Foreign Export Declarations Could Deal ‘Devastating’ Blow to China’s Vape Exports, Logistics gl Expert Says
A U.S. Customs and Border Protection proposal to collect foreign export declarations and other overseas customs documents could expose discrepancies in the value, classification and description of China-made vape shipments entering the United States. A veteran Chinese logistics professional told 2Firsts that the measure, if implemented, could undermine the all-inclusive shipping model used by some unauthorized vape exporters and push parts of the trade toward costlier underground channels. The risk extends beyond higher duties: accurately declared products may also be more readily identified as unauthorized e-cigarettes subject to FDA enforcement.
