Katz & Sons, Inc. , case citation 643 A.2d 642 1994 , was a case decided by the Appellate Division of the Superior Court of New Jersey that first applied public policy considerations instead of the touch and concern doctrine when deciding the validity of a restrictive covenant . ref Casner, A.J. et. al. Cases and Text on Property, Fifth Edition. Aspen Publishers, New York, NY 2004, p. 1024 ref Factual background Davidson Bros., Inc. operated several grocery stores in downtown New Brunswick, New Jersey New Brunswick , New Jersey . After vacating one inner city supermarket, Davidson added a restrictive covenant not to compete to the lease for the vacated property. The covenant disallowed the lessee from operating another grocery store in the space. ref Casner, p. 1020 ref Decision The Appellate Division of the Superior Court of New Jersey held that the covenant not to compete was invalid because it was against public policy. The availability of supermarkets in inner city areas was essential to fighting urban blight , and this could not be outweighed by the property interests of Davidson. ref Casner, p. 1024 ref This usage of public policy grounds instead of the touch and concern doctrine for analyzing covenants predated the same technique used in the Restatement of the law Restatement Third of Servitudes. ref Casner, p. 994 ref References reflist Category Real property law Category 1994 in United States case law Category New Jersey state case law Category 1994 in New Jersey ... more details

SCC 2000 2002 Unanimous Binnie J. NotParticipating LawsApplied Apotex Inc. v. Wellcome Foundation Ltd. , 2002 4 S.C.R. 153, is a leading Supreme Court of Canada decision on the utility requirement for a patent in Canada. The Court rejected a challenge by the generic drug manufacturers Teva Canada Novopharm and Apotex to declare Glaxo Wellcome s patent for Zidovudine AZT , an AIDS fighting drug, invalid. Background Beginning in 1983, a team at Glaxo Wellcome began researching an anti AIDS drug. The team hoped to develop a chain terminator to halt HIV in the reverse transcription stage of its HIV life cycle. Drugs selected on the basis of their chemical structure were screened starting in 1984. One of the drugs screened at that time is what is now known as Zidovudine AZT . This drug was originally synthesized by cancer researchers in 1964, in a project that was eventually abandoned. Since that time, Glaxo Wellcome had been developing Zidovudine AZT as an anti bacterial. In vitro testing on mouse cells revealed that Zidovudine AZT was potentially effective against AIDS . Glaxo Wellcome was not equipped to do testing of the drug on human cell lines, so it contracted with the National Institutes of Health for this work. In February 1985, the NIH reported the positive results of their screening to Glaxo Wellcome , and, on March 16, 1985, Glaxo Wellcome filed a patent application for a new use of Zidovudine AZT in the United Kingdom.
