Representative Matters :
- Represented AstraZeneca in defeating Complex Innovations’ attack on a patent covering SYMBICORT® inhalation aerosol for asthma and COPD. On July 24, 2017, the Patent Trial and Appeal Board denied institution of an IPR trial as to every challenged claim. The PTAB largely followed the arguments Covington presented in the preliminary response when determining that the petition failed to demonstrate a reasonable likelihood of prevailing at trial.
- Representing Indivior in multiple bet-the-company patent litigation disputes related to its billion dollar Suboxone® Film product. Secured major bench trial victory in 2016 against first two ANDA filers.
