The Food and Drug Administration said it would allow Juul Labs Inc. to stay on the U.S. market while the e-cigarette maker appeals the agency’s ban on its products.
The FDA in June ordered the vaping company to pull its e-cigarettes off the U.S. market, saying Juul hadn’t submitted sufficient evidence that they were safe. A federal appeals court then granted Juul a temporary stay of the order, and Juul was asking the court for a longer stay to continue selling its e-cigarettes for the duration of the appeal process. Juul separately had asked the FDA to stay its own order pending the appeal.
