Xarelto News Update: New Court Documents Issued in Two Courts, Says Lawsuitsettlementnews.com

NEW ORLEANS, April 2, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- MT Services LLC, a Lawsuit Settlement News Reporting Company which operates lawsuitsettlementnews.com, announced today that two new court documents have been issued in consolidated litigations over Xarelto in Louisiana and Pennsylvania. In the U.S. District Court in the Eastern District of Louisiana, where the federal multidistrict litigation (MDL) for Xarelto is underway, a court order dated March 24th shows that plaintiffs will now be able to file their cases directly in the proceeding (In Re: Xarelto Products Liability Litigation, No. 2592). Additionally, court documents from March 23rd in the Philadelphia Court of Common Pleas show that a Master Long Form Complaint was approved, and plaintiffs with claims who want to file suit in that state will be able to use that approved Master Long Form Complaint in Pennsylvania's (PA) mass tort proceeding for Xarelto (In Re: Xarelto Litigation, Case ID 150102349).

 

According to court documents, there are currently more than 300 filed suits regarding Xarelto just in the federal litigation in Louisiana, with about 160 known cases as of now with similar claims pending in Pennsylvania's mass tort proceeding. The lawsuits involved include claims of serious uncontrollable bleeding events, resulting in either long hospital stays or even deaths as a result of using the blood thinner, Xarelto. In light of the recent issuance of court documents and the update in the Xarelto litigation, MTS is prepared to assist new patients who believe they have been injured by the drug that has no known antidote, according to experts.

Chris Janish, CEO of MTS, commented on the recent rise of Xarelto cases being filed, "We are not surprised that the number of cases being filed in both state and federal courts is rising each day.

We are equipped to assist them by connecting them with a Xarelto law firm that is already deeply involved in this litigation."

DePuy ASR Round Two Settlement Program Enrollment Deadline Announced, Says Lawsuitsettlementnews.com

CLEVELAND, March 17, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- MT Services LLC, a Lawsuit Settlement News Reporting Company which operates lawsuitsettlementnews.com, announced today that the enrollment deadline for the second round of the DePuy ASR Hip Settlement Program has been announced. Individuals who received the DePuy ASR hip implant device revision surgeries between August 31st, 2013 and January 31st, 2015 are eligible to participate in the Settlement Program and have until May 1st, 2015 to submit their claims, according to The Legal Examiner. Those who qualify to participate in round two of the Settlement Program will need to file various forms as well as medical records to validate their claims.

 

Even though round two of the DePuy ASR Hip Settlement Program is in the works, it's still unclear when compensation payments will begin to be issued to the plaintiffs involved. Depending on liens in each individual case, MTS' legal experts believe most payments will not come until late 2015 or beyond. Also, the exact settlement agreement terms are still unknown at this time, but legal experts are expecting the terms to be quite similar to those of the first ASR settlement. In round one of the US ASR Hip Settlement Program, the plaintiffs involved received settlement awards at a value of approximately $250K.

Chris Janish, CEO of MTS, commented on the recent enrollment deadline announcement, "Johnson & Johnson and their DePuy hip division have been working quickly to get the plaintiffs who have qualified for this landmark settlement their money quickly. Patients who have had complications with their ASR or Pinnacle DePuy hips are urged to seek immediate legal consultation as it is possible that there is still time to file a claim against DePuy and receive a $250K base settlement amount or award."

MTS is ready to assist those who need lawsuit help with finding a qualified DePuy hip law firm or hip recall lawyer to provide a free evaluation on their specific case. Patients who have had an implant of a metal-on-metal hip and have been experiencing pain, high chromium and cobalt levels (known as metallosis), and/or need a revision surgery could be in-line to receive up to $250-300K in compensation or more. Stryker Hip recall settlement values have been announced at $300K per hip.

DePuy Pinnacle Hip Bellwether Trials Set to Resume in 2015, Says Lawsuitsettlementnews.com

HOUSTON, March 6, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- MT Services LLC, a Lawsuit Settlement News Reporting Company which operates lawsuitsettlementnews.com, announced today that a recent announcement was made stating that more bellwether trials are set to take place in 2015 over J&J DePuy's Pinnacle hips. The federal litigation was established in the Northern District of Texas U.S. District Court and according to a court order from February 18th, 10 cases were selected as potential bellwether candidates (DePuy Orthopaedics Inc. Pinnacle Hip Implant Product Liability Litigation, MDL No. 2244).The court overseeing the DePuy Orthopaedics Inc. Pinnacle Hip Implant Products Liability Multidistrict Litigation docket has designated 10 cases to be prepared for trial in 2015, four months after jurors reached a defense verdict in the first Pinnacle Hip Implant case to go to trial in late 2014. In the Feb. 18 order signed by U.S. District Judge Ed Kinkeade, the ten cases on the list to be prepared for trial are: Aoki (Cause No. 3:13-cv-01071-K), Borel (Cause No. 3:14-cv-00441-K), Brown (Cause No. 3:12-cv-02780-K), Christopher (Cause No. 3:14-cv-01994-K), Greer (Cause No. 3:12-cv-01672-K), Klussmann (Cause No. 3:11-cv-02800-K), O'Neill (Cause No. 3:12-cv-03027-K), Peterson (Cause No. 3:11-cv-01941-K), Ryan (Cause No. 3:13-cv-02195-K), and Thibodeau (Cause No. 3:13-cv-01027-K) in Case 3:11-md-02244-K. Johnson and Johnson continues to stand by and defend the Pinnacle hip, unlike their recent $2.5Bil settlement of the ASR hip. The upcoming bellwether trials will be a key indicator in the direction of this litigation to show if J&J will continue to fight liability on the filed cases at hand or settle like they did in the ASR litigation.

 

According to MTS' sources closely monitoring the litigation, J&J hasn't discussed settlement figures or possible settlement amounts regarding the Pinnacle hip, based on their belief that reports on the hip have been positive in relation to the default rates. J&J has not recalled the Pinnacle hip and they continue to sell the product due to their belief that the product is safe. However, the Pinnacle hip is designed similarly to the ASR hip, which causes metallosis (metal blood poisoning), and legal experts indicate that the Pinnacle hip data, despite it being better than ASR, still shows default rates that are not consistent with a safe product. In the upcoming months, the trials will begin in front of several juries to determine if the Pinnacle hip has caused severe damage to plaintiffs resulting in pain and suffering worth damages similar to the $250K base award settlement value in the ASR litigation.

Chris Janish, CEO of MTS, commented on the recent news regarding the Pinnacle hip litigation, "With DePuy winning the first bellwether trial in Texas, the next set of trials are key to the way this litigation will move. It is clear that hips with metal components that have caused metallosis and required revision surgery in past litigations have yielded settlement values of approximately $200K or more. However, that still remains in question with the DePuy Pinnacle litigation at this time."

MTS is ready to assist those who need lawsuit help with finding a qualified Pinnacle hip law firm or Pinnacle hip lawyer to provide a free evaluation on their specific case. Patients who have had an implant of a metal-on-metal hip and have been experiencing pain, high chromium and cobalt levels, and/or need a revision surgery could be in-line to receive up to $250K in compensation or more.
