    Case Name

    In re: Lidoderm Antitrust Litigation,
    Case No. 14-md-2521-WHO

    District Court for the Northern District of California

    Case Summary

    This lawsuit is about whether Defendants entered into an anticompetitive agreement to delay the availability of allegedly less expensive generic versions of Lidoderm. End-Payor Plaintiffs allege that, as part of settlement of a patent lawsuit that Endo and Teikoku brought against Watson, Endo and Teikoku agreed to pay Watson to not to start selling an authorized generic version of Lidoderm from August 2012 until September 2013 (the “Patent Settlement”). End-Payor Plaintiffs contend that the Patent Settlement was anticompetitive and violated state laws in the Class States.
