`in this district. See Genzyme Corporation et al. v. Dr. Reddy’s Laboratories Ltd. et al., C.A.
`
`No. 13-01506 (D. Del).

`information and belief, Dr. Reddy’s Laboratories, Ltd. has engaged in and maintained systematic
`
`and continuous business contacts within the State of Delaware, and has purposefully availed
`
`itself of the benefits and protections of the laws of Delaware. Defendant Dr. Reddy’s

`
`injury to Teva, which manufactures COPAXONE®, for sale and use throughout the United
`
`States, including the State of Delaware. Dr. Reddy’s Laboratories, Ltd. has applied for FDA
`
`approval to market and sell a generic version of COPAXONE® 40 mg/mL throughout the
`
`United States, including in Delaware. Further, upon information and belief, DRL, affiliates of

`
`Upon information and belief, this Court also has personal jurisdiction over DRL
`
`because it previously has been sued in this district, did not challenge this Court’s assertion of
`
`personal jurisdiction over it, and availed itself of this forum by asserting counterclaims for the
`
`purpose of litigating a patent infringement dispute. See, e.g., Genzyme Corporation et al. v. Dr.

`
`The DRL ANDA
`
`31.
`
`DRL filed an ANDA under 21 U.S.C. § 355(j) seeking FDA approval to
`
`manufacture, use, offer for sale, sell in and import into the United States glatiramer acetate
`
`injection, 40 mg/mL, purported to be generic to Teva’s COPAXONE® (“DRL’s Glatiramer
`
`Acetate Product”), prior to the expiration of the ’250 and ’413 patents.
`
`32.
`
`FDA assigned the ANDA for DRL’s Glatiramer Acetate Product the number
`
`206767.
`
`33.
`
`DRL also filed with the FDA a certification pursuant to 21 U.S.C.
`
`§ 355(j)(2)(A)(vii)(IV) alleging that the claims of the ’250 and ’413 patents are invalid,
`
`unenforceable, and/or would not be infringed by the manufacture, use, importation, sale or offer
`
`for sale of its DRL’s Glatiramer Acetate Product (“DRL’s Paragraph IV Certification”).
`
`34.
`
`By letter dated August 1, 2014, DRL notified Teva that it had filed ANDA
`
`No. 206767 seeking approval to market DRL’s Glatiramer Acetate Product prior to the
`
`expiration of the ’250 and ’413 patents (“DRL Notice Letter”).

`
`date of receipt of the DRL Notice Letter.

`
`Upon information and belief, both Dr. Reddy’s Laboratories, Inc. and Dr. Reddy’s
`
`Laboratories, Ltd. submitted, collaborated and/or acted in concert in the preparation or
`
`submission of ANDA No. 206767.

`
`COUNT I FOR INFRINGEMENT OF U.S. PATENT NO. 8,232,250 BY DRL
`
`38.
`
`The allegations of the proceeding paragraphs 1–37 are realleged and incorporated
`
`herein by reference.
`
`39.
`
`The use of DRL’s Glatiramer Acetate Product is covered by one or more claims
`
`of the ’250 patent.
`
`40.
`
`The commercial manufacture, use, offer for sale, sale, marketing, distribution
`
`and/or importation of DRL’s Glatiramer Acetate Product would infringe one or more claims of
`
`the ’250 patent.
`
`41.
`
`Under 35 U.S.C. § 271(e)(2)(A), DRL’s submission to FDA of DRL’s ANDA to
`
`obtain approval for DRL’s Glatiramer Acetate Product with a Paragraph IV Certification related
`
`thereto before the expiration of the ’250 patent constitutes an act of infringement, and if
`
`approved, the commercial manufacture, use, offer to sell, sale, or importation of DRL’s
`
`Glatiramer Acetate Product containing glatiramer acetate, would infringe one or more claims of
`
`the ’250 patent.
`
`42.
`
`DRL was aware of the ’250 patent when engaging in these knowing and
`
`purposeful activities and was aware that filing DRL’s ANDA with DRL’s Paragraph IV
`
`Certifications with respect to the ’250 patent constituted an act of infringement of the ’250
`
`patent.
`
`43.
`
`Upon information and belief, DRL seeks approval from the FDA to manufacture,
`
`use, offer for sale, sell in and import into the United States DRL’s Glatiramer Acetate Product
`
`indicated for the treatment of patients with relapsing forms of multiple sclerosis. Further, upon
`
`information and belief, DRL seeks approval from the FDA to manufacture, use, offer for sale,
`
`sell in and import into the United States DRL’s Glatiramer Acetate Product, which will be
`
`indicated for administration three times per week with at least 48 hours between every injection.

`
`44.
`
`Upon information and belief, DRL plans and intends to, and will, infringe the
`
`’250 patent immediately and imminently upon approval of DRL’s ANDA.
`
`45.
`
`Upon information and belief, immediately and imminently upon approval of
`
`DRL’s ANDA, there will be direct infringement of the claims of the ’250 patent under 35 U.S.C.
`
`§ 271(a).
`
`46.
`
`Upon information and belief, DRL, under 35 U.S.C. § 271(b), acted in concert,
`
`actively supported, participated in, encouraged, and/or induced the infringement of one or more
`
`claims of the ’250 patent.
`
`47.
`
`Upon information and belief, DRL plans and intends to, and will, actively induce
`
`infringement of the ’250 patent when DRL’s ANDA are approved, and plans and intends to, and
`
`will, do so immediately and imminently upon approval.
`
`48.
`
`Upon information and belief, DRL knows that DRL’s Glatiramer Acetate Product
`
`are especially made or adapted for use in infringing the ’250 patent and that DRL’s Glatiramer
`
`Acetate Product is not suitable for substantial non-infringing uses. Upon information and belief,
`
`DRL, under 35 U.S.C. § 271(c), plans and intends to, and will, contribute to the infringement of
`
`the ’250 patent immediately and imminently upon approval of the DRL’s ANDA.
`
`49.
`
`The foregoing actions by DRL constitute and/or would constitute infringement of
`
`the ’250 patent, active inducement of infringement of the ’250 patent and/or contribution to the
`
`infringement by others of the ’250 patent.
`
`50.
`
`Upon information and belief, DRL acted without a reasonable basis for believing
`
`that it would not be liable for infringing the ’250 patent, actively inducing infringement of the
`
`’250 patent and/or contributing to the infringement by others of the ’250 patent.

`
`Teva will be substantially and irreparably harmed by DRL’s infringing activities
`
`unless the Court enjoins those activities. Teva will have no adequate remedy at law if DRL is
`
`not enjoined from the commercial manufacture, use, offer to sell, sale in and importation into the
`
`United States of DRL’s Glatiramer Acetate Product.
`
`52.
`
`DRL’s activities render this case an exceptional one, and Teva is entitled to an
`
`award of their reasonable attorney fees under 35 U.S.C. § 285.
`
`COUNT II FOR DECLARATORY JUDGMENT OF
`INFRINGMENT OF U.S. PATENT NO. 8,232,250 BY DRL
`
`53.
`
`The allegations of the proceeding paragraphs 1–52 are realleged and incorporated
`
`herein by reference.
`
`54.
`
`Upon information and belief, DRL plans to begin manufacturing, marketing,
`
`selling, offering to sell and/or importing DRL’s Glatiramer Acetate Product soon after FDA
`
`approval of DRL’s ANDA.
`
`55.
`
`Such conduct will constitute direct infringement of one or more claims on the
`
`’250 patent under 35 U.S.C. § 271(a), inducement of infringement of the ’250 patent under 35
`
`U.S.C. § 271(b), and contributory infringement of the ’250 patent under 35 U.S.C. § 271(c).
`
`56.
`
`DRL’s infringing patent activity complained of herein is imminent and will begin
`
`following FDA approval of DRL’s ANDA.
`
`57.
`
`As a result of the foregoing facts, there is a real, substantial, and continuing
`
`justiciable controversy between Teva and DRL as to liability for the infringement of the ’250
`
`patent. DRL’s actions have created in Teva a reasonable apprehension of irreparable harm and
`
`loss resulting from DRL’s threatened imminent actions.
`
`58.
`
`Upon information and belief, DRL will knowingly and willfully infringe the ’250
`
`patent.

`The use of DRL’s Glatiramer Acetate Product is covered by one or more claims
`
`of the ’413 patent.
`
`62.
`
`The commercial manufacture, use, offer for sale, sale, marketing, distribution
`
