A federal court has granted Juul Labs a temporary stay preventing the FDA from enforcing its Marketing Denial Order (MDO) that ordered all Juul products off the market.
The court also gave Juul permission to file a motion for an emergency stay that would put the FDA denial on hold while the court hears a full appeal.
The MDO, issued yesterday, is now on hold pending further order of the court, which allows Juul to continue selling products for the time being. The stay was granted by a three-judge panel of the D.C. Circuit Court of Appeals, which will also hear Juul Labs’ petition for review (appeal) of the FDA’s denial order.
The temporary stay is intended to give the court time to study Juul’s request for an emergency stay, said the judges, and is not an indication of how the court will rule on Juul’s motion, which is due by June 27 at noon. The FDA will have until July 7 to respond to Juul’s motion, and Juul will have until July 12 to respond to the FDA.
