Our runners up for Litigator of the Week include a team from Latham & Watkins led by San Francisco Litigation partner Sarah Ray, who prevailed on behalf of Oracle Corp. before a jury in the Northern District of California.
The plaintiff, a Canadian firearms and outdoor outfitters online and retail company, alleged breach of contract and fraud related to business software contracts it entered into with NetSuite, which was acquired by Oracle in 2016. Latham took over the case in January of 2019, got key expert testimony excluded and convinced the jury (which deliberated for just over an hour) to deliver a complete defense verdict for Oracle.
We were also impressed by Goodwin Procter partners Kevin Martin, Elaine Hermann Blais, Robert Frederickson, III, Ira Levy and Robert Cerwinski, who prevailed before the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit on behalf of Dr. Reddy's Laboratories. The appellate panel affirmed a decision that Dr. Reddy's generic Suboxone sublingual film, a drug with a $1 billion U.S. market, does not infringe two patents-in-suit asserted by plaintiffs Indivior and Aquestive Therapeutics.
