Utah Court Dismisses Two More BRCA Testing Patent Lawsuits

Myriad Genetics, Laboratory Corporation of America, and Ambry Genetics have decided to settle BRCA testing IP litigation and the lawsuits have been dismissed by an Utah court.
Judge Robert Shelby of the US District Court for the District of Utah signed a court order dismissing University of Utah Research Foundation, et al v. Labcorp and University of Utah Research Foundation et al v. Ambry. The parties have agreed to drop their claims and counterclaims against one another. In a statement issued yesterday, Ambry noted that Myriad and other patent owners “grant a covenant to not sue Ambry under the patents asserted in the litigation proceedings.”
