SAN FRANCISCO, Aug. 5, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Berger Montague, a leading national plaintiffs' law firm, has achieved a landmark motion for injunctive relief in Innovative v. Biosense. Following the $442 million verdict, the Court's decision promises to reshape the industry, promote competition, and reduce healthcare costs.

"We are proud of our team's work," said Shareholder and Supervisor of the San Francisco office Joshua P. Davis. "The Court noted the 'grave antitrust violation' harming competition and monetary penalties are not enough," said Mr. Davis. "This injunction aims to 'unfetter the market' to restore competition in the cardiac mapping device industry," added Mr. Davis.

The court's order prohibits Biosense from engaging in tying policies that made it impossible for competitors to enter the market to reprocess a range of important medical devices. It also stops Biosense from implementing blocking technology that functions as a technical tie and prevents Biosense from hoarding supplies that competitors need to compete. The injunction requires Biosense to submit reports to the court every six months, inform customers and employees of the injunction, and maintain a hotline for reporting violations. The key restrictions are put in place for five years, subject to review by the Court.
