Winston Wins Ninth Circuit Reversal and Class Certification in Swimmers’ Antitrust Case, Securing a Global-Impact Settlement with World Aquatics

Winston represents a class of professional swimmers alleging World Aquatics (WA) violated antitrust laws by blocking their participation in the competing  International Swimming League. After WA won summary judgment, Winston successfully appealed, arguing the court applied improper antitrust standards and wrongly denied certification of a damages class.

Am Law awarded Winston “Litigator of the Week” Runner-Up recognition for the win. In November 2024, the Ninth Circuit denied rehearing.

The post-grant review can be filed on any grounds that are available to dispute the validity of a patent claim, except for the following: failure to disclose the best mode requirement....Read more
