Here is the docket for the main Copaxone patent case. Before anyone gets excited about the dismissal of the foreign defendants at the end, so far as I can tell that seems to me to be of little substance, it dismisses just the two foreign entities Novartis AG and Sandoz International GmbH, the claims against the US entities Sandoz Inc and Momenta remain and the patent dispute is ongoing. However, it is possible that some of this procedural frou frou has occupied the court and slowed things down.
