Yes a Thank You to the Judge for thinking about and trying to understand the issue rather than just jumping in blindly.  HOWEVER, what will this do to us (the consumers) of this product and our safety?  No we don't want them taken away, but i'd still like to see some research and safety regulations enforced so as not to end up inhaling the "un-advertised" chemicals that some companies might decide to add in.  It is a step but not the giant leap that we're all hoping for yet!

**** YA!!!! That's awesome! Screw the FDA. This is huge for us! I'm glad they spent so much of our money on the man power to seize shipments, write documents, and the court battles. Looks like that under the table money they were receiving couldn't help them.

Excellent point MD. I think the e-cig community will demand that testing continue, but I as a consumer demand it from the suppliers. I dont want any government policy or regulation. I believe we as consumers should be the enforcers.

I haven't read through the opinion yet, but I do know this opinion refers only to a preliminary injunction motion. This is a first battle that was won, but I doubt that the war is over. Hopefully, the FDA will do something else with its money rather than continue these legal procedings.

This is Awesome News. (And you thought we went to New York to work on units ;) ) :lol:

We have not one the war, but this is a major battle won! Especially with some of the things we are working on out here in New York, you can expect some very cool products coming to the Vapor Talk store this year.... :thumbsup:

I agree Jeff, WE the consumers must demand that our safety is priority. That's how it all starts. And no, not from the government, we don't need another industry in their back pocket, they're overstuffed as it is.  I think the "leadership" that Chris and his team are providing is pioneering the path for us , but I think as a community this is also something that should be demanded of every company that sales e-cigarette anything.

I know it's just a battle, and not the war, but I am honestly so happy that I'm going to go out and celebrate!   :punk:

I know that vapersplace put up a link to Doc. No. 55 which is the order,  THIS LINK will take you to Doc. No. 54 which is the memorandum opinion.
