June 4, 2026
On June 4, 2026, the Supreme Court issued a unanimous decision in Hikma Pharmaceuticals USA Inc. v. Amarin Pharma, Inc. While the Court reaffirmed existing law on pleading standards, it reversed the Federal Circuit’s decision that had focused on how relevant statements could be understood by medical providers as instructions to infringe.

AIPLA Files Amicus Brief in Range of Motion Products, LLC v. Armaid Company Inc.
April 20, 2026
Arlington, VA — April 17, 2026 — The American Intellectual Property Law Association (AIPLA) filed an amicus curiae brief with the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit in Range of Motion Products, LLC v. Armaid Company Inc., No. 23-2427, supporting rehearing and rehearing en banc. AIPLA urges the Court to restore clarity to design patent law by (1) reaffirming that Gorham v. White (1871) provides the sole governing test for infringement and forecloses any separate “plainly dissimilar” threshold, and (2) confirming that claim construction may not be used to exclude any visual portions of the overall claimed design.
