US appeals court tosses FTC order against Intuit over TurboTax advertising
March 20 (Reuters) - A U.S. appeals court on Friday threw out a Federal Trade Commission order barring Intuit INTU.O from deceptively advertising its popular TurboTax products as "free" for simple tax returns.
The 5th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals said it violated the constitutional separation of powers for an administrative law judge to decide a deceptive advertising claim.
