SAN DIEGO – May 17, 2017 – ResMed today issued the following statement from David Pendarvis, the company’s global general counsel and chief administrative officer:
“ResMed filed a motion to dismiss the current International Trade Commission (ITC) complaint so that we can refile and incorporate additional evidence generated since the original complaint was filed. We believe this will make our strong case even stronger, and we remain confident in our position in the ITC. ResMed’s innovations have transformed the treatment of sleep-disordered breathing.
