The laws and regulations for E-cigarettes are ambiguous in North Carolina. A bill was written to prevent sales to minors but the language was confusing and unclear as to whether e-cigarettes are defined as tobacco products or not. Many states, including North Carolina are waiting for the federal government to make a final decision about the therapeutic use of these products. Here are the regular tobacco laws:
North Carolina smoking law states that it is unlawful for any person under the age of 18 to purchase, attempt to purchase, accept, or attempt to accept tobacco or tobacco products. N.C. GEN. STAT. § 14-313
In North Carolina, there are penalties in place for minors who are found using tobacco products. These penalties aim to discourage underage tobacco use and promote compliance with the state's regulations.
The primary penalty for minors using tobacco in North Carolina is a fine, which can amount to a maximum of $100. It is important to note that if a minor chooses not to pay the fine, they have the option to attend a court hearing to challenge the citation. This provides an opportunity for the minor to present their case and potentially contest the citation, ensuring a fair and just process.
By imposing fines, North Carolina aims to discourage minors from engaging in tobacco use, protect their health and well-being, and uphold the laws and regulations surrounding tobacco products. The possibility of attending a court hearing allows for due process, giving minors the opportunity to challenge the citation if they believe there are valid grounds to do so.
