The US District Court for the Western District of Wisconsin dismissed, for lack of personal jurisdiction, Onego Bio's suit seeking to invalidate a foundational Every Company ovalbumin patent and alleging fraud. An identical suit in Delaware, where both companies are incorporated, is still pending.

## Key facts

- Onego filed the suits in September 2025
- Onego uses the fungus Trichoderma reesei; Every uses the yeast Komagataella phaffii
