Leave to appeal refused in alleged drugs price fixing case

03 December 2008

Today, the Court of Appeal refused leave to the Serious Fraud Office to appeal against an earlier ruling in a case alleging drugs price fixing known as Operation Holbein.   This means that the prosecution comes to an end.  The SFO will fully consider the implications of the ruling, in due course, when it receives the reasoned judgment.
