A new case management order was recently filed in the transvaginal mesh multicountry litigation (MCL) in the Superior Court of New Jersey in Atlantic County. Filed on June 26, 2013, the case management order covers transvaginal mesh lawsuit issues, including the scheduling of defendants’ witness depositions and delivery of transvaginal mesh product data from the defendants’ records to the plaintiffs.
According to Carey Danis & Lowe transvaginal mesh lawyers, from the latest case management order, it is clear that a considerable amount of headway has been made into the Ethicon Gynecare transvaginal mesh MCL in New Jersey. As a law firm that represents individuals who claim to have been injured by transvaginal mesh, Carey Danis & Lowe is encouraged by this progress, as it is a clear indicator of a more efficient and expedited process for plaintiffs whose transvaginal mesh lawsuits were consolidated into the MCL.
