ORDER
Case: 14-1330 Document: 14 Page: 2 Filed: 06/18/2014
2 ABRAXIS BIOSCIENCE, LLC v. LEE
The parties jointly move to remand to the district
court in light of Novartis AG v. Lee,
740 F.3d 593 (Fed.
Cir. 2014).
Based on Novartis, the parties agree that the patent
term adjustment at issue in this appeal should be 323
days. Thus, the parties seek a remand with instructions
for the district court to vacate the portion of its judgment
denying the patent term adjustment and further instruc-
tions to remand to the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office
for the purpose of recalculating the patent term adjust-
ment.
Accordingly,
IT IS ORDERED THAT:
(1) The motion is granted. The case is remanded for
further proceedings consistent with this order.
(2) Each party shall bear its own costs.
