Same happened when AMRN appealed to SC. Supreme Court came back requiring Hikma reply at that time. It appears to be a more common strategy than I knew before I had to take Law 101 for Dummies as a requisite for investing in Amarin.
marjac, Hikma did the exact same thing when AMRN appealed their case to the USSC. The Court did ask for a response from Hikma which had everybody thinking we had a shot...especially since it was the end of the term and chances of being granted cert increase. We know how that worked out. Here's hoping for better luck!
