The West Virginia Business Litigation Blog is carrying the story of a lawsuit filed in Monongalia County, WV titled Mylan Pharmaceuticals, Inc v. PG Publishing Co., Civil Action No. 09-C-592 (August 19, 2009). The Post Gazette had reported that workers were overriding QC rules in the manufacturing of pharmaceuticals. This report caused Mylan’s stock price to suffer a severe jolt. Mylan alleged in the suit the PG’s allegations were untrue and were based upon documents “misappropriated” by the newspaper. Various other theories are expounded in the Complaint, which can be accessed by a link in the story.
