美最高法院拒绝受理:营养补充剂行业挑战纽约州未成年人销售限制案不予审查,案件回地方法院续审

华盛顿——美国最高法院10月12日(周一)拒绝受理营养补充剂行业组织「负责任营养委员会」(Council for Responsible Nutrition,CRN)对纽约州一项法律的挑战。据 Vitamin Retailer 10月12日报道,最高法院驳回了 CRN 在《Council for Responsible Nutrition v. James》一案(案号25-1145)的调卷令申请,该案挑战的是联邦第二巡回上诉法院维持驳回初步禁令的裁决。案件接下来将回到联邦地方法院继续审理。
争议所涉的纽约州《普通商业法》第391-oo条规定,对标示、营销或以其他方式宣称用于减重或增肌的某些膳食补充剂,禁止向18岁以下未成年人销售。CRN 主张,州法以产品是否如此宣称为标准划线「范围过宽」,且没有证明合法补充剂造成了该法所称的危害。
CRN 总裁兼首席执行官史蒂夫·米斯特(Steve Mister)对裁决表示「失望」。他表示,最高法院不受理并不构成对案情本身的裁决,也不改变该组织的看法。米斯特还表示,制定限制合法产品的政策时,应当有扎实证据支持并做到范围适当。需要注意的是,拒绝调卷令在美国司法惯例中仅表示最高法院不审理该案,不代表对下级法院裁决的认可或否定。(来源:Vitamin Retailer 2026年10月12日报道)
U.S. Supreme Court Declines to Review Challenge to New York's Supplement Age-Restriction Law
WASHINGTON — The U.S. Supreme Court declined on Monday, Oct. 12, to review the Council for Responsible Nutrition's (CRN) challenge to a New York law restricting the sale of certain dietary supplements to people under 18, Vitamin Retailer reported on Oct. 12. The Court denied CRN's petition for a writ of certiorari in Council for Responsible Nutrition v. James, No. 25-1145, which asked the justices to review a Second Circuit decision affirming the denial of a preliminary injunction against New York General Business Law Section 391-oo. The case will now move forward at the district court.
New York's law restricts sales of certain supplements to minors based on whether the products are labeled, marketed or otherwise represented for weight loss or muscle building. CRN argued the state's approach sweeps too broadly and fails to establish that lawful supplements are responsible for the harms cited in the law.
CRN president and CEO Steve Mister said the organization was disappointed the Court would not take the opportunity to review its concerns, adding that a decision not to hear the case is not a ruling on the merits of its arguments and that restrictions on lawful products should be supported by sound evidence and appropriately tailored. A denial of certiorari, by longstanding practice, means only that the Court will not hear the case and carries no implication about the correctness of the lower court's decision.
