Overview
Lee Berger, Travis West, and Madi Carr co-authored an article for California Lawyers Association Antitrust & Unfair Competition Law E-Brief titled "District Court Limits Enforcement of AB 824 to Settlement Agreements Within California." The article explores a decision in Association for Accessible Medicines v. Bonta, where the Eastern District of California held that California's AB 824 cannot be enforced against pharmaceutical settlement agreements negotiated or executed outside the state. The ruling converts a preliminary injunction into a permanent one, narrowing the law's reach under the Dormant Commerce Clause.
