A federal appeals court on Friday temporarily blocked the Food and Drug Administration’s order banning the sale of Juul e-cigarettes, giving a reprieve to the company while the court hears more arguments.
The U.S. Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit granted Juul’s request to stay the order until the court has time to hear further argument on the issue. The court noted its stay does not reflect on how it will rule on the substance of the case.
The move comes one day after the FDA banned sales of Juul’s electronic cigarettes in a major blow against the company.
Juul has been at the center of controversy over the rise of youth vaping.
