`
`
`
`IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
`EASTERN DISTRICT OF TEXAS
`MARSHALL DIVISION
`
`SEAGEN INC.,
`
`v.
`
`Plaintiff,
`
`DAIICHI SANKYO CO., LTD.,
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`Civil Action No. 2:20-CV-00337-JRG
`
`Defendant,
`
`
`
`ASTRAZENECA PHARMACEUTICALS LP, and
`ASTRAZENECA UK LTD,
`
`
`Intervenor-Defendants.
`
`
`
`SEAGEN’S NOTICE OF NON-OPPOSITION TO AND MOOTNESS OF DAIICHI
`SANKYO’S MOTION FOR LEAVE TO USE CERTAIN DISCOVERY MATERIALS IN
`A PENDING ARBITRATION
`
`In the parties’ meet and confer on February 1, 2022, Seagen explained to DSC that it likely
`
`would not oppose any motion by DSC seeking leave to use discovery materials from this case in
`
`the parties’ pending arbitration. (Dkt. 283 at 3, Ex. 4.) Nonetheless, without first confirming non-
`
`opposition with Seagen, DSC filed its motion for leave as opposed. (Dkt. 285.) Upon review
`
`yesterday, February 3, Seagen confirmed to DSC that it does not oppose the relief requested by
`
`DSC in its motion. To facilitate DSC’s cross use, Seagen also produced in the arbitration the
`
`materials requested by DSC on pages 3 and 4 of its motion and confirmed to DSC that it may use
`
`the materials in a motion to the arbitrator to reopen the hearing as to those documents. Because
`
`Seagen has explicitly made available these documents for use in the arbitration, DSC’s motion for
`
`leave is moot.
