Prof. Hall Quoted on Law360 on FDA's Decision to Not Take Off-Label Ruling to Supreme Court

Professor Ralph Hall was quoted in a Law360 article, entitled "FDA Wise To Duck High Court Off-Label Ruling, Attorneys Say," regarding the U.S. Food and Drug Administration's recent choice to not challenge the appeals court's December 3 ruling that a drug sales representative's truthful off-label promotion was protected by the First Amendment freedom of speech rights. Many agree that this decision by the FDA will avoid a Supreme Court battle that might have given drug-makers more room for off-label marketing. Hall was quoted saying, "What we're seeing here is the government taking a logical position and saying, 'This isn't the case to take to the Supreme Court, even if the Supreme Court would take it.'"
