(Reuters) -The U.S. International Trade Commission (ITC) on Wednesday denied a motion by Apple Inc (NASDAQ:AAPL) to stop an import ban on some high end Apple Watches from going into effect.

The Biden Administration still has a Dec. 25 deadline to determine whether to veto the ban for public policy reasons.

Apple had made a motion to the ITC to temporarily halt the order while the case is under appeal or in light of a potential government shutdown.

Masimo (NASDAQ:MASI) won an ITC patent case over technology that enables the blood oxygen feature on some of Apple’s smartwatches.
