Eli Lilly: files civil action against Adocia
(CercleFinance.com) - Adocia has announced that Eli Lilly has filed a complaint against it in the US, seeking a judgment declaring that the inventors' designations appearing on two of Lilly's patents are complete and correct.
The complaint has not yet been served on Adocia and no timetable for the case has been provided. Lilly argues in its complaint that the proceeding was initiated because Adocia asserted that Lilly's patents reflect inventive contributions by Adocia.
"Adocia welcomes the opportunity to address, in the appropriate forum, its concerns about the alleged inventorship of Lilly's two cited patents. Indeed, we have previously asked Lilly to appropriately recognize Adocia's contributions," commented Gérard Soula, Chairman and CEO of Adocia.
