From the Opinion

The passage below is extracted verbatim from the opening of the document. It has not been editorially summarized — consult the full opinion for the court's complete reasoning.

Danisco US Inc. (“Danisco”) appeals from the decision of the United States District Court for the Northern District of California dismissing Danisco’s declaratory judgment action against Novozymes A/S and Novozymes North America, Inc. (collectively “Novoz ymes”) for lack of subject matter jurisdiction. See Danisco US Inc. v. Nov o- zymes A/S , No. 12 -4502, 2013 WL 2351723 (N.D. Cal. Jan. 8, 2013) (unpublished). Because we conclude that the totality of the circumstances establish es a justiciable controversy, we reverse and remand.
