Court Rules Against Ethicon In Pelvic Mesh Case, But Without Punitive Damages

A jury awarded $2.16 million in the case, making it the first time a jury in a pelvic mesh case has ruled in a plaintiff’s favor without including punitive damages. Meanwhile, Ethicon is also appealing an earlier case to the US Supreme Court, and CR Bard has settled almost 100 pelvic mesh cases pending in West Virginia.
