Jury Awards Plaintiff $68M In Bard Mesh Case

CR Bard has lost the first transvaginal mesh case to be tried in New Jersey, but there are another 150 to go in the state. A Bergen County jury awarded $33m in compensatory damages and $35m in punitive damages to a woman who says she's experienced chronic pain and other complications since receiving two of the company's transvaginal mesh products in 2009.
