A federal appeals court on Dec. 13 denied TikTok’s request to delay the Jan. 19, 2025, deadline for it to cut ties with the Chinese communist regime, shortly after the app filed its final argument for a delay.

In an unsigned, expedited order, the three-judge panel denied the request and found there was no precedent for granting this type of request.
