A South Florida attorney has asked a federal judge to halt the sale of electronic cigarettes manufactured by Juul Labs Inc.

Jonathan Gdanski, a litigator with the Schlesinger Law Firm in Fort Lauderdale, filed a motion in the U.S. District Court for the Middle District of Florida on Thursday asking for a permanent injunction against the San Francisco-based based company. The motion asks the court to block the sale of Juul products nationwide as the company has never sought approval from the Food and Drug Administration to sell its electronic nicotine devices, as required by the Tobacco Control Act.
