January 31, 2025

In a long-running, bitter dispute between fierce competitors, Winston obtained a complete defense judgment on January 31, 2025, for its client Alphatec Holdings, along with its Chairman and CEO Pat Miles, following a week-long bench trial in the Delaware Chancery Court in early October 2023 over allegations of breach of fiduciary duty and violation of alleged non-competition covenants. Following additional post-trial briefing and oral argument, the court, on January 31, 2025, found in favor of Winston’s clients in all respects. The January 31, 2025, defense judgment marked the third favorable trial outcome obtained by Winston for Alphatec in a series of lawsuits filed by NuVasive—seeking, collectively, damages totaling nearly US$200M—dating back to October 2017.
