I think at the time it was new line who wanted the Jason franchise but obviously couldn't at the time,hence the reason that Jason X came out, this was supposedly to fill in time while the negotiations took place, between the respective owners.
This is why Jason X does not fit into any particular time line with the other films.

Jason Goes to Hell was the first Friday movie put out by New Line, if you recall Freddy's hand pops out of the ground and pulls Jason's mask down.
Jason X takes place after FVJ, the producers at the time wanted to make another Friday but they knew that FVJ was in the works so in order to not interfer with FVJ they set Jason X in the not so distant future and I'm not talking about after he's frozen, I'm talking about at the very beginning when he first gets captured to be studied.
Actually there was an idea floating around that there would a Friday movie that would fill in the time gap between FVJ and Jason X or there would be another Friday movie set on Earth 2. Another idea that the Fans have wanted for a long time is Jason in the snow at Crystal Lake.
