No Way for 'Pay for Delay'
The Supreme Court yesterday ruled that "pay-for-delay" settlements in the pharmaceutical industry "can sometimes violate" antitrust laws, a ruling that opens the door for federal regulators to challenge such deals in court. The majority ruling said the Federal Trade Commission can sue drugmakers for potential antitrust violations stemming from pay-for-delay deals, effectively reversing an appeals court decision to dismiss FTC's argument that such deals have an anticompetitive effect. Chief Justice John Roberts in the dissenting opinion said the majority's ruling will discourage the settlement of patent litigation.
