Hewlett-Packard v. Acceleron

Represented Hewlett-Packard in a case filed by non-practicing entity Acceleron. On appeal to the Federal Circuit, we successfully obtained reversal of a decision dismissing HP’s declaratory judgment complaint in Delaware.

The appellate ruling clarified the declaratory judgment standards following MedImmune.
