Supreme Court to Review FDA Case on RJ Reynolds E-Cigarette Forum Shopping

The US Supreme Court has agreed to review a case involving the federal approval of electronic cigarettes. The case, brought forward by the FDA, questions whether an electronic cigarette manufacturer, specifically British American Tobacco's subsidiary RJ Reynolds, can seek a review in a circuit where the company is not based. This case, known as FDA v. Reynolds Vapor, could potentially limit the ability of manufacturers to engage in forum shopping by having retailers join the case.
