April 21, 2023 Opinion or Order Filing 507 ORDER granting in part and denying in part #479 Letter Motion to Compel; granting #485 Letter Motion to Seal; granting #494 Letter Motion to Seal; granting #505 Letter Motion to Seal. Before the Court is Plaintiff's April 3, 2023 Letter Motion to compel documents subject to the Court's September 16, 2022 Order concerning Takeda's privilege waiver. (Pls.' 4/3/2023 Ltr. Mot., ECF No. 479/481.) After the motion was fully briefed, the Court directed Takeda to produce documents for the Court's in camera review. (4/17/23 Order, ECF No. 502.) Thereafter, on April 21, 2023, Takeda emailed to the Court and Plaintiffs counsel a letter, which subsequently was filed to the public docket at ECF No. 506, indicating that it intended to produce 27 of the approximately 100 documents subject to the Court's in camera review (21 in full and 6 with redactions) that Takeda previously had withheld in full or in part. The Court held a telephone conference with the parties on April 21, 2023. It is further Ordered that the parties' motions to seal filed in connection with Plaintiffs' Letter Motion to compel (see ECF Nos. 485, 494, 505) are GRANTED. The Court finds that the proposed redactions and sealing requests are narrowly tailored to prevent unauthorized dissemination of sensitive business information. See Lugosch v. Pyramid Co. of Onondaga, 435 F.3d 110, 11920 (2d Cir. 2006) (internal quotation marks omitted). SO ORDERED. (Signed by Magistrate Judge Stewart D. Aaron on 4/21/2023) (kl)

August 25, 2021 Opinion or Order Filing 334 USCA OPINION (Certified) USCA Case Number 20-1994-cv.Purchasers of brand diabetes drug ACTOS brought suit against the manufacturer ("Takeda") for improperly describing its patents to the Food and Drug Administration, in effect extending the duration of its patent protection over ACTOS and delaying generic competition. The district court denied Takeda's motion to dismiss, concluding that the alleged patent descriptions were incorrect under the HatchWaxman Act and pertinent regulations. On this interlocutory appeal, we hold that under the "Listing Requirement" of 21 U.S.C. 355(b)(1), a combination patent does not "claim" any of its component drug substances past their individual patent expiration dates. We further hold that the purchasers were not required to allege that Takeda's interpretation of the Listing Requirement was unreasonable in order to plead a monopolization claim under the Sherman Act. AFFIRMED and REMANDED.. Catherine O'Hagan Wolfe, Clerk USCA for the Second Circuit. Certified: 08/25/2021..(nd)

Two years after Actavis, federal judges continue to grapple with its implications and many questions of first impression remain to be decided. One thing should be clear. While some settlements of patent infringement suits may produce anticompetitive effects yet be cleverly designed to evade antitrust scrutiny, not all settlements are illegal, nor-in the Court's view should they be. Protecting against anticompetitive conduct is an important interest, but so too is the innovation the patent laws are intended to protect. The aim of this Court, like those in Actavis and its progeny, is to balance these interests as the law prescribes. It is not this Court's role, however, to expand the scope of Actavis beyond what was contemplated in the Supreme Court's decision. In this case, Plaintiffs' allegations fall short of cognizable anticompetitive conduct. Permitting the claims to go forward would exceed the contours established by Actavis, and discourage or needlessly restrict future patent settlements in a fashion not currently supported by law. For the foregoing reasons, Defendants' motions to dismiss the Consolidated Amended Class Action Complaint are granted in their entirety. Plaintiffs have previously amended the Complaint three times and further amendment would be futile. Accordingly, dismissal is with prejudice. The Clerk of the Court is directed to terminate items 122, 124, 125, and 131 on the docket and to close the consolidated cases listed in footnote 1 of this Opinion. SO ORDERED.
