Robert Cerwinski, JD, Partner at Goodwin, discusses current infliximab litigation.
Transcript:
Janssen is currently involved in litigation over infliximab. Where does the case stand?
Right now, the parties are actively litigating potential infringement of 1 patent. The parties were scheduled for a trial, and that trial has been suspended while the parties litigate issues concerning standing and damages. Right now, there is a pending motion to dismiss Janssen’s complaint for patent infringement for lack of standing.
