Securities, M&A & Corporate Governance Litigation

Winston hosted a webinar exploring the evolving antitrust landscape as it intersects with drug pricing policy and regulation under the current administration. Reviving the “most-favored-nation” drug pricing principle of the prior Trump administration, this administration is leveraging antitrust tools to address high pharmaceutical costs, signaling a shift toward increased regulatory scrutiny of market power and pricing disparities. Our lawyers covered the latest executive orders and proposed agency actions, potential implications for pharmaceutical companies and the broader healthcare industry, and how to navigate this changing regulatory environment.

Law Glossary
A class action is a procedural device that allows one or more persons, usually plaintiffs (though federal and state procedural rules also authorize defendant classes) to file suit on behalf of a group of similarly situated persons. Federal law defines a class action as “any civil action filed under Rule 23 of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure or similar State statute or rule of judicial procedure authorizing an action to be brought by 1 or more representative persons as a class action.” 28 U.S.C. § 1332(d)(1)(B), (d)(8).
Law Glossary
Removal is a procedural mechanism through which a case filed in state court may be transferred to federal court upon the request of one or more parties. Actions filed in state court over which a federal court would have original jurisdiction may be transferred—or removed—to federal court under the removal statute, 28 U.S.C. § 1441. Generally speaking, removal is possible if (1) the plaintiff(s) and defendant(s) are citizens of different states and the case places more than $75,000 in controversy (so-called “diversity” jurisdiction), or (2) the case turns on issues of federal law (so-called “federal question” jurisdiction). In many cases, defendants prefer to be in federal court, and so defendants often analyze early in the case whether removal is possible.

Dark patterns are deceptive or manipulative designs on digital platforms that trick users into making unintended choices. Dark patterns can appear as designs that create misleading impressions, hide or delay disclosure of material information, lead to unauthorized charges, or obscure privacy choices. Some examples include advertisements deceptively formatted to look like independent editorial content; non-descriptive dropdowns, arrows, or small icons to hide the full cost and other terms, free trials that automatically convert to recurring subscriptions; and prominent cookie-consent banners that hide cookie-rejection options.
