A federal judge will hear arguments on October 7 regarding a Florida law that bans the production and sale of lab-grown meat, challenged by UPSIDE Foods, Inc.

The outcome could significantly impact the cultivated meat industry in Florida. The state is expected to respond to UPSIDE's motion next week.
