Rise in Claims of Defective and Harmful Medical Devices
Last month 22 cases against the manufacturer of a device used to treat urinary incontinence in women were consolidated into a multidistrict action. According to the suits, Mentor Corp. negligently designed the product, known as ObTape, and failed to warn consumers about potential risks. While the first ObTape-related case favored Mentor, plaintiffs attorneys say the decision should have little bearing in the outcome of their cases. Amanda Bronstad, Law.com
