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. The amicus brief filed by AIPLA on March 27, 2026, advocated for affirmance and cautioned the Court not to change the patent infringement pleading standard or adopt any categorical exemption from inducement for a particular industry.
