Appeals court clears the way for US sales ban on two Apple Watch models to be revived Thursday
A federal appeals court has decided to revive a U.S. sales ban on Apple's premium watches while it referees a patent dispute revolving around a sensor, raising the specter that the company will pull the devices from stores for the second time in less than a month.
The ruling issued Wednesday by the U.S. Court of Appeals in comes three weeks after it blocked the ban. That temporary stay enabled Apple to renew sales of the two internet-connected watch models, the Series 9 and Ultra 2, embroiled in an intellectual-property fight with medical technology company Masimo.
