Lost sales totaling $200 million. That's what Alaris Medical Systems Inc. (San Diego), a wholly owned subsidiary of Cardinal Health Inc. (Dublin, OH), estimates could have been the outcome if an injunction request filed by ICU Medical Inc. (San Clemente, CA), which claimed patent infringement, had been successful.
In denying the request for a temporary restraining order and injunction, Judge Alicemarie Stotler of the U.S. District Court for the Central District of California ruled that ICU failed to satisfy any of the four requirements for preliminary injunctive relief.
Based on the merits of the case, ICU was likely to succeed.
ICU would be irreparably harmed if the injunction was not granted.
The balance of the hardships was tipped toward ICU.
The injunction would have a favorable impact on the public interest.
