Re: Human Genome Sciences, Inc. v. Genentech, Inc.,
C.A. No. 08-l66-SLR
Dear Judge Robinson:
Plaintiff Htunan Genome Sciences, Inc. ("HGS") respectfully submits this letter
in response to defendant Genentech, Inc.’s ("Genentech") August 26, 2008 letter
requesting expedited consideration of its pending motion to dismiss (D.I. 19). HGS notes
that there are significant factual and legal distinctions between Genentech's pending
motion to dismiss and the motion to dismiss granted in Human Genome Sciences, Inc. v.
Amgen, Inc., C.A. No. 07-780-SLR. Accordingly, HGS does not believe that the
outcome in that case dictates the result of Genentech’s pending motion to dismiss this
case. We are available for oral argument on this matter at the COI1l't'S convenience.
Respectfully,
/s J0hn G. Day
