About CNA’s Breach of Terms of Its Long Term Care Policies

A complaint was filed on May 18, 2015 in the United States District Court for the Western District of Wisconsin accusing CNA of breaching its terms of their long term care policies. Plaintiff claims CNA is misrepresenting the Wisconsin statutory definition for assisted living facilities and the requirements of its long term care policies to justify denying all claims at the state’s assisted living facilities. To qualify for benefits of a CNA long term care policy, you must show that you are medically eligible and the long term care facility meets the policy’s definition of such. At issue in this lawsuit is the definition of 24- hour-a-day nursing service and whether any Wisconsin assisted living facility can meet this requirement. Plaintiff alleges CNA is wrongfully stating that no Wisconsin assisted living facility can meet the 24-hour-a-day nursing service requirement. Plaintiff further states CNA is denying to pay claims at facilities in which they had paid in the past. Plaintiff adds that CNA also requested and received a 45% rate increase on these very policies.

About C-QUR Mesh

C-QUR Mesh is manufactured by Atrium Medical Corporation and was approved by the FDA in 2006 for hernia repair, chest wall reconstruction and the repair of surgical wounds. In July 2013, Atrium voluntarily recalled the hernia repair implants due to the coating of C-QUR Mesh sticking to the inner package lining when exposed to excessive humidity for an extended period of time.

Class action lawsuits have been filed nationwide against Atrium alleging plaintiffs have suffered serious side effects due to the implantation of C-QUR Mesh. Many plaintiffs have experienced infections, internal injuries to nearby organs, nerves and/or blood vessels, mesh adhesion to the intestines, chronic pain and recurring hernia. The numerous lawsuits claim Atrium failed to conduct adequate research and testing of the C-QUR Mesh and misled the public when it marketed the product as safe and effective knowing it could cause serious medical problems.

About Beyaz

Beyaz is an oral contraceptive which is prescribed to avoid pregnancy. It is the “sister” medication to Yaz and Yasmin. All are manufactured by Bayer Pharmaceuticals.

All oral contraceptives contain ethinyl estradiol, a man-made estrogen-like hormone that increases clotting factors in the blood. Some studies show that the newer contraceptives with third and fourth generation progestins have a different reaction with ethinyl estradiol and carries a greater risk than older medications. Beyaz contains drospirenone, a fourth generation progestin.

Beyaz and other oral contraceptives containing drospireone have caused women serious side effects such as gallbladder disease, stroke, blood clots and death. Many women who have suffered from these adverse effects have filed class action lawsuits claiming they were not adequately warned of the dangers of taking Beyaz and Bayer knew or should have known about these dangerous side effects.

A class action complaint was filed on June 17, 2015 in the United States District Court for the District of New Jersey alleging Hyundai designed, manufactured, tested, marketed, distributed and knowingly sold defective braking systems on the 2006-2010 Hyundai Sonatas.

The complaint further alleges Hyundai knew of the defect and its effects through previously released data, testing, maintenance reports and customer complaints.

About Hoosier D.O.T. Radial Racing Tires

A class action lawsuit was filed on June 18, 2015 in the United States District Court for the Middle District of Florida alleging Hoosier Racing Tire Corporation manufactured and sold defective racing tires. The complaint asserts that the tires tend to have tread separation which leads to a “wart like” growth in the middle of the tire. This results in a large amount of vibration and eventual tire blow out leaving the driver with virtually no control of the car. This tire defect can result in damage to the race car, damage to the racetrack facility and replacement of the tires which are valued at $1200-$1400 per set.

Plaintiff further alleges that Hoosier Racing Tire Corporation knew or should have known of the tire defect and failed to warn the public of said defect.

About GE Defective Gas Range Ovens

A class action complaint was filed on June 17, 2015 in the United States District Court for the District of New Jersey alleging General Electric designed, manufactured, tested, marketed, distributed and knowingly sold defective gas range ovens. The 40” Free Standing Gas Range oven, model JGB600EEDES all contain the same surface knob and ignition system defects. The complaint states when the knobs are subject to minor, everyday bumps or movement, the burner valve opens and releases flammable gas. This release of gas creates an unreasonable and often dangerous risk for the consumer. The complaint continues to state the ovens also contain an ignition system defect which causes a delay igniting the released gas. According to the complaint, GE has not offered to repair or replace the defective gas ovens, leaving the consumer with a defective product which needs to be repaired or replaced at their expense.

About The Class Action Lawsuit Against Foster Farms

A Class Action complaint was filed against Foster Poultry Farms Inc. on July 13, 2015 in the Superior Court of the State of California for the County of Los Angeles alleging the defendants engaged in false and misleading advertising when it labeled its chicken with a certification from the American Humane Association (“AHA”). The complaint states the certification label creates a reasonable expectation to the consumer that the chicken they are purchasing was produced in humane conditions. The plaintiff states she discovered the AHA certification doesn’t require special treatment of chickens. According to the complaint, the AHA standards just require the eggs to come from facilities that avoid contagion. The plaintiff describes a number of abuses the chickens allegedly suffer at Foster Farms including forced molting and beak-trimming; being starved and not given water; and male chicks being ground up alive. Plaintiff contends that she relied on the AHA certification label when making her purchase and believed the chicken she purchased was created in humane conditions.

About Essure Implants

Essure is a permanent contraceptive implant device. The device is a small metal polyester coil which is placed in a woman’s fallopian tubes causing complete and permanent sterilization without a surgical procedure. It works but creating inflammation in the tubes creating scar tissue which blocks the fallopian tubes passage ways. Essure was originally manufactured by Conceptus, which Bayer acquired in 2013.

The Essure implant was approved by the FDA in 2002. According to the FDA, there have been more than 4,000 events reported including severe back pain, painful and prolonged menstrual periods and pierced fallopian tubes which caused the device to be lodged in nearby organs.

Essure can cause serious complications including painful menstrual periods, vaginal bleeding, perforated fallopian tubes, device expulsion, device migration and extreme pain during intercourse. Women who have suffered adverse effects through the use of Essure have filed class action lawsuits claiming the device is defective and caused them injury. Plaintiffs also allege that Bayer took part in misleading marketing and failed to warn the public of the potential dangerous side effects of Essure. In fact, in April 2015 the FDA opened an investigation amid allegations Bayer falsified and changed the medical records during clinical trials, failed to report negative results, deceived the public and the FDA about device safety and efficiency; and used defective materials during the manufacturing process.

About Power Morcellators

Morcellation devices, manufactured by Johnson & Johson, are used mostly during hysterectomies and myomectomies, the removal of fibroids or other noncancerous growths in the uterus. It is also used in laparoscopic spleen and renal surgeries. The device is inserted through a small incision to cut tissue into small pieces for easy removal. This instrument makes these surgeries less-invasive and patients experience faster recovery times.

During surgeries to remove fibroids, some of the tissue is later diagnosed as cancerous, even though pre-op testing failed to detect cancer. The spinning action of the morcellators’ blades can spread cancerous tissue, leading to the spreading of advanced-stage cancerous growth. One type of these cancers is metastatic leiomyosarcoma, an aggressive cancer of the uterus. It is estimated that 1 in 350 women may be at risk for developing cancer due to undiagnosed malignant cells being spread after surgeries using morcellators.

The device can also spread healthy tissue throughout the abdomen where it can grow on other organs, causing pain, bowel obstruction and infection.

In April of 2014 the FDA discouraged doctors from using morcellators to remove uterine fibroids due to the increased risk of undiagnosed cancer spreading. Shortly after the warning, Johnson & Johnson pulled its laparoscopic morcellators from the market.

Lawsuits have been filed against Johnson & Johnson by those who were diagnosed with cancer after a morcellation procedure. These plaintiffs claim the company manufactured and marketed a defective product and failed to warn the public of the increased risks and dangers of the use of morcellators.
