I am with you on that one JR… the lawsuits for me are not a part of the base case. I personally think getting a new formulation in market that is patent protected has a higher likelihood of happening sooner that a final resolution of these lawsuits. Having said that I feel there is a greater than 0% chance of a settlement before that for some of the reasons you stated. JMO
Our best and quickest route was the Marjac/North legal action but for some reason Amarin decided not to join thus giving the other side the standing get out of jail card. These current cases, for tge time being are noise.
