A US District Court Judge has granted the Motion filed by Teresa Peacocke and me on behalf of Smartway Pharmaceuticals in an international RICO case. The case was filed by Abbott Laboratories and alleged that over 300 companies were involved in a conspiracy to defraud insurance companies.
The Court held that it lacked personal jurisdiction over the UK based clients.
Teresa Peacocke of Outer Temple Chambers and I represented the Smartway defendants with instructions provided by Smartway’s UK solicitors.
A copy of the judgment can be found here.
