The brief outlines how the panel majority in the case did not follow its own precedent in holding that corporations engaging in skinny labeling could be held liable for inducing patent infringement. This reduction of generic competition undermines the regulatory regime of the pharmaceutical industry. The amicus brief can be read here.
