On Apr. 06, 2018, in one
liner decision, Federal Circuit affirmed Florida district court’s non-infringement
finding in favor of Mylan in Lialda® Hatch-Waxman litigation.
Previously following a four-day bench trial, U.S. District
Judge Charlene Edwards Honeywell in January 2017 concluded that the ANDA from
Mylan infringes the US 6,773,720
patent. Mylan appealed but it was deactivated. Mylan then returned to the
Florida Middle court & asked to re-consider its decision. The Court agreed,
and in Jun 2017 it vacated the prior decision and entered non-infringement judgment
in favor of Mylan. This judgment was appealed by Shire. Federal circuit then heard
oral argument in Apr 2018 & affirmed the non-infringement decision of
Florida court by way of Rule 36 judgment.
