  • holding that this factor requires a court to consider whether the “delay may be 12 undermining the statutory scheme”
  • recognizing that claim preclusion may not attach where a prior case was determined on the issue of standing, but finding that “[p]rinciples of collateral estoppel [also known as issue preclusion] clearly apply to standing determinations”
  • finding that “[t]he reasonableness of the delay must be judged ‘in the context of the statute’ which authorizes the agency’s action”
  • finding that agency’s failure to raise exhaustion issue, paired with futility of exhaustion, constitutes waiver of the issue despite the fact that intervenor-defendant has raised the issue
  • “Standing ranks amongst those questions of jurisdiction and justiciability not involving an adjudication on the merits, whose disposition will not bar relitigation of the cause of action originally asserted * * (footnote omitted)
  • distinguishing the “enforceable statutory directive” to withdraw approval for unsafe drugs under 21 U.S.C. § 355(e) from typical FDA enforcement actions
