New York, NY - Kenyon & Kenyon LLP client KV Pharmaceutical Company has announced that the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Missouri has granted its motions for summary judgment in a patent infringement case filed against it by AstraZeneca.

Did You Know?

A patent protects your invention.

A patent for an invention is a grant of property rights by the U.S. Government through the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office. The patent grant excludes others from making, using, or selling the invention in the United States. The terms "Patent Pending" and "Patent Applied For" are used to inform the public that an application for a patent has been filed. Patent protection does not start until the actual grant of a patent. Marking of an article as patented, when it is not, is illegal and subject to penalty.
