June 11, 2020), was on something of a crusade with a test case against a vaping product manufacturer. Maybe he was just out to make some money, but <span style=\"color: #ff0000\">his purchase of the products was clearly to set up the ability to sue<\/span>. Why do we say that? Well, he bought defendant\u2019s \u201ciced watermelon\u201d and \u201cpound cake\u201d flavored products on November 26, 2019, to \u201ctest and evaluate\u201d them and brought his consumer protection case within the next five weeks. We certainly have railed against untimely suits before, but this seems really fast and somewhat suspicious given the regulatory status of the products. The purchase of the products and initiation of the suit just happened to be within a seven and a half month gap when the products were being sold without an arguably required FDA authorization. The short version of this is that FDA had extended the time for certain ENDS products to file necessary premarket tobacco applications until August 2022, but a court struck that down in May 2019; while that decision was on appeal, FDA issued a the replacement guidance in January 2020 that extended the application deadline to May 2020. <\/span><span data-offset-key=\"250ea-0-3\">Id.<\/span><span data-offset-key=\"250ea-0-4\"> at **2-4. Got it? So, it does not look like coincidence that the purchase and subsequent complaint occurred before the murky regulatory window closed.&#8221;<\/span><\/p>\n<p>ARTICLE LINK:<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.druganddevicelawblog.com\/2020\/07\/could-this-be-the-ends-of-buckman-mused-the-vaped-crusader.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">\u201cCould This Be the ENDS of Buckman?\u201d Mused The Vaped Crusader<\/a><\/p>\n<div style=\"padding-bottom:20px; padding-top:10px;\" class=\"hupso-share-buttons\"><!-- Hupso Share Buttons - https:\/\/www.hupso.com\/share\/ --><a class=\"hupso_toolbar\" href=\"https:\/\/www.hupso.com\/share\/\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/static.hupso.com\/share\/buttons\/dot.png\" style=\"border:0px; padding-top: 5px; float:left;\" alt=\"Share Button\"\/><\/a><script type=\"text\/javascript\">var hupso_services_t=new Array(\"Twitter\",\"Facebook\",\"Google Plus\",\"Pinterest\",\"Reddit\");var hupso_background_t=\"#EAF4FF\";var hupso_border_t=\"#66CCFF\";var hupso_toolbar_size_t=\"medium\";var hupso_image_folder_url = \"\";var hupso_url_t=\"\";var hupso_title_t=\"VAPING%20NEWS%3A%20PREEMPTIVE%20LAWSUIT%20CASE\";<\/script><script type=\"text\/javascript\" src=\"https:\/\/static.hupso.com\/share\/js\/share_toolbar.js\"><\/script><!-- Hupso Share Buttons --><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&#8220;It appears that the plaintiff in Yimam v.
