PhRMA v. Maine

Supreme Court requests brief from U.S. Solicitor General Theodore Olson before deciding whether to hear the Pharmaceutical Research & Manufacturers of America's case against the Maine drug discount program. Sen. Olympia Snowe (R-Maine) asks Olson in an Oct. 10 letter to request that the court not review the case, which would allow Maine to proceed with implementation of the program (1"The Pink Sheet" July 9, p. 3)
