Msn Laboratories Pvt. Ltd v.Novartis Ag
This appeal before the Telangana High Court concerned an infringement suit filed by Novartis Ag against Msn Laboratories Pvt. Ltd regarding patent IN 229051, which covers a specific Valsartan/Sacubitril combination drug. The respondents (Novartis) had secured an interim injunction based on prima facie evidence of infringement due to the appellant's (Msn Labs) manufacturing approval for a similar formulation. The court examined the statutory provisions of the Patents Act and CPC, ultimately dismissing the appeal and upholding the injunction granted in favor of Novartis.
Seedsmen Association v.Government Of Andhra Pradesh
The appeal challenged an order passed in a Writ Petition concerning a Government Order that fixed the reasonable trait value/royalty for cotton seeds. The court considered arguments regarding the prejudice to the petitioners if the order was suspended, particularly its effect on pending arbitral disputes.
C Krishniah Chetty And Sons Private Limited v.Deepali Company Private Limited
The Karnataka High Court dismissed the commercial appeal filed by C Krishniah Chetty And Sons Private Limited, which sought to overturn a trial court's rejection of interim injunctions. The core issue was whether the appellant had established a prima facie case for trademark protection in the ongoing family dispute. The court held that because the suit/appeal lacked proper authorization (Board Resolution) and involved conflicting interests among equal shareholders, no prima facie case could be made out, thus justifying the trial court's refusal of temporary injunctions.
