Brief supporting Juul’s appeal against FDA denial of its products

Amicus brief filed in the DC Appeals Court in Juul vs FDA case

On 23 June 2022, FDA denied Juul’s applications to market its products in the United States. Juul is challenging this vindictive, arbitrary and capricious decision in court. David Abrams, Scott Ballin, Martin Jarvis, David Sweanor and I filed an amici curiae brief in support of Juul’s motion for a stay pending substantive review on public health grounds.

Some relevant documentation here:

• Our public health amicus brief
• Juul’s motion for a stay
• Other amicus briefs: National Association of Convenience Stores; Vape Industry bodies; Vapor Technology Association.

Documents are also available via the Court Docket for the case.
