Oct.12.2022
Juul sues FDA for not disclosing documents regarding the ban of its e-cigarette products, alleging violation of federal law.

According to reports, Juul is suing the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA).


Juul has accused the FDA of violating the federal Freedom of Information Act by failing to disclose documents that support its ban on Juul's e-cigarette products. These documents would show whether the FDA conducted research on Juul's products and whether its decision was scientifically sound. Juul claims that the FDA improperly withheld the company's materials by invoking the deliberative process privilege. The company said, "the public deserves to know the scientific facts behind this agency's controversial decision.
