Event Synopsis
As reverse payment settlements continue to surge after the Actavis antitrust litigation, the courts have relentlessly provided clarification on the precise evidence needed by a private plaintiff when proving whether the settlement agreement was a material cause of the alleged injuries. The recent court decisions in Solodyn and Lidoderm ruled that plaintiffs could survive a motion for summary judgment by presenting “some evidence” that the generic manufacturer “could have” prevailed in patent infringement litigation against the brand manufacturer. Thus, articulating a private plaintiff burden to resist summary judgement on the issue of causation.
In this LIVE Webcast, a team of thought leaders and professionals assembled by The Knowledge Group will provide an in-depth analysis of the fundamentals as well as recent trends and developments in Plaintiffs’ Causation Burden in light of Solodyn and Lidoderm decisions.
Key topics include:
• Reverse-Payment Settlements: A Recap
• Plaintiffs' Causation Burden: An Overview
• Impact of Actavis Decision
• Common Risks and Pitfalls
• The Solodyn and Lidoderm Decisions
• Significant Issues and Trends
