The FDA's ban on Juul products was put on hold by the appeals court. The e-cig maker's access to the U.S. market was effectively killed by the U.S. regulators on Thursday.
According to the court documents, the temporary stay will be used to buy time until the case can be heard by the court.
The FDA took action against the company after they didn't provide enough evidence that their products were safe. The regulatory agency said that it had a lot of questions.
According to a report from the Wall Street Journal, Juul is considering filing for Chapter 11 if it can't get the FDA to reverse its order.
Joe Murillo, the company's chief regulatory officer, said that the company would appeal the regulators decision.
In our applications, which we submitted over two years ago, we believe that we appropriately characterized the toxicological profile of JUUL products, and believe this data, along with the totality of the evidence, meets the statutory standard of being appropriate.
The FDA gave the green light for Reynolds American and NJOY to sell their own products in the U.S.
