Axonics (AXNX) announced that the jury has returned a unanimous verdict in the patent infringement lawsuit brought by Medtronic (MDT) against Axonics in U.S. District Court for the Central District of California. The jury found that Axonics does not infringe any of the three patents-in-suit. “A jury of our peers recognized that Axonics’ proprietary tined lead design and temperature sensor technology is differentiated from our competitor’s intellectual property,” said Raymond W. Cohen, chief executive officer. “As we have said since this case was first filed in late 2019, our view is that Medtronic’s lawsuit was initiated to stifle competition, limit patient and physician choice, and protect the incumbent’s monopoly in sacral neuromodulation. We are very pleased with the jury’s finding and continue to remain focused on fulfilling our mission of positively impacting the lives of adults with bladder and bowel dysfunction.”
