It s antisuit time again. The related case law is evolving in ever shorter intervals, and I ll give a talk about that topic on May 19 in a European Commission (specifically, DG GROW) webinar, entitled
Enforcement of Standard-Essential Patents current bottlenecks and possible solutions. I ll be one of the three panelists on antisuit injunctions, and I m looking forward to providing an overview of extraterritorial issues in standard-essential patent (SEP) litigation and their interdependencies. I ll talk about developments in multiple jurisdictions on three continents and make a specific proposal for a way out without having to agree on a new international treaty. Access will be free, but typically those webinars have only a limited window for sign-up. Subsequently to my little contribution to the event, I ll upload my slide deck to Scribd and post something to this blog.

South Dakota Governor Kristi Noem has filed a lawsuit against officials in the Biden administration over their cancellation of the Mount Rushmore Fireworks Celebration. The lawsuit was filed in the United States District Court for the District of South Dakota Central Division.
“Mount Rushmore is the very best place to celebrate America’s birthday and all that makes our country special,” said Noem. “After telling us they’d ‘circle back,’ the Biden administration has not responded to our request to uphold the Memorandum of Agreement between the State of South Dakota and the National Parks Service to host a safe and responsible national celebration and fireworks show.

In a new development following the February scandal, the 38-year-old actress filed a lawsuit on Friday in the United States District Court for the Central District of California where she claimed that the singer – whose real name is Brian Hugh Warner – raped and sexually battered her, Rolling Stones revealed.
THE ANSWER
In October 2020, Blue Cross Blue Shield reached a $2.67 billion settlement in class-action antitrust lawsuit. A judge has not given final approval to the settlement.
WHAT WE FOUND
This settlement stemmed from an Alabama class-action antitrust lawsuit titled In re: Blue Cross Blue Shield Antitrust Litigation MDL 2406.
Blue Cross reached the settlement on Oct. 16, 2020 with the Blue Cross Blue Shield Association (“BCBSA”) and Settling Individual Blue Plans.
In the class-action suit, plaintiffs alleged that Blue Cross “violated antitrust laws by entering into an agreement not to compete with each other and to limit competition among themselves in selling health insurance and administrative services for health insurance.” The plaintiffs argued that Blue Cross was able to charge higher rates for plans through the practice of limiting competition.
