Texas Court Denies Emergency Request by Hemp Businesses to Delay THC Ban - Ganjapreneur
Texas court denied emergency request to delay enforcement of a new THC ban, meaning hemp-derived THC products (including delta-8) are now effectively prohibited in Texas. Businesses must cease sales and remove products immediately.
Aforeworn detected this change in the Cannabis & Hemp Operators space on July 27, 2026 and published this briefing so affected operators are forewarned rather than caught off guard. It is rated Critical. Hemp-derived THC brands, processors/manufacturers, and retailers in Texas should confirm how it applies to their specific situation before acting.
