While the Lit Daily took a week off last week, y’all just kept racking up the wins. In hopes of giving every worthy result its moment in the sun, we’ve got a special Tuesday batch of shout outs ready to go for you today. Our two-week cycle of Litigators of the Week, runners-up and another round of shout outs will appear in this space Friday.

The first early-week shout out goes to a team at Covington & Burling that got a big win earlier this month in the state of Washington’s Supreme Court for client Eli Lilly and Co. The plaintiff, who suffered a stroke after using Lilly’s Cialis, claimed the company hadn’t adequately warned consumers about stroke risk. The court, however, held that the learned intermediary doctrine applied and warnings the company provided to prescribing physicians fulfilled Lilly’s duty to warn. The court further held there’s no direct-to-consumer advertising exception to the learned intermediary doctrine. Covington partner Paul Schmidt argued the case in February while he was taking a day off from the firm’s work for McKesson during the months-long Washington opioid trial. Mike Imbroscio, Emily Ullman and Dan Eagles handled the briefing for Lilly.
