Have any vaginal mesh lawsuits gone to trial?

Yes. In July 2012, a California Superior Court jury awarded more than $5 million to a woman who was injured by C.R. Bard’s Avaulta Plus device. C.R. Bard was ordered to pay more than $3 million of the judgment, while the woman’s doctor was held responsible for the remainder. In March 2013, a New Jersey Superior Court jury awarded more than $11 million in compensatory and punitive damages to a woman injured by Ethicon’s Gynecare Prolift devices.
