Alm, I too would like to hear from our legal eagles the answer to your question. As you indicate, the percentage of scripts going to the Generics is clearly surpassing the level which would be expected strictly for VHTG (some people will argue that there is no way of knowing what the scripts are for and that possibly the Generics have been able to expand that indication - but we all know the reality).

Rather than just arguments concerning profits for a company, Amarin can point to 300 people who have lost their jobs, their livelihoods. That might change the color of the pleadings.

Alm, I have put some thought into that question before. In order to quiet the voices in my head I had to make the assumption that it is a timing issue. First we need a ruling on the motions to dismiss, then we can request relief. I am not a lawyer so my thinking might be completely off base.
Sleven,

I don't think the case has proceeded to the point where AMRN can ask for an injunction - the case must be developed to the point where the judge can make an opinion on whether AMRN is likely to prevail or not before they can issue an injunction. Even if we get to that point sometime in the next year or so, the cash bond AMRN would have to put up in case they lose would be huge, possibly unaffordable - I think it's equivalent to the damages they're seeking. Do companies in the UK not have to post that bond to get an injunction?
