2. POM Wonderful vs. Coca-Cola; where the issue is whether a private individual or company has a right to sue in federal court to challenge a food or beverage label as misleading or false under the Lanham Act.


3. Limelight Networks vs. Akamai Technologies, a patent infringement case.


4. Susan B. Anthony List vs. Driehaus, involving the right to sue to challenge a state law forbidding false statements about a candidate during an election campaign, when the speaker contends his statements are truthful.
