MNTA petition for cert filed:

(I have been reviewing the SCt website for the filing on a daily basis for the past week, and this is the first time I have seen this posted. I assume that a copy of the petition will be widely available in the near future. I am curious whether the petition will take the position that the Fed. Cir.'s majority interpretation of the Hatch-Waxman safe harbor results in a violation of the 5th amendment takings clause. Also surprised MNTA has not issued a PR by now; note the 2/15 filing date).
