Case Status
Dangerous drugs and dangerous medical devices can cause personal injury in up to hundreds or even thousands of individuals, each of whom may be entitled to compensation. A significant step in obtaining compensation for each individual occurs when the courts decide to group the cases under the supervision of a single judge who oversees investigation and mediation of the cases. Even though hundreds of Zostavax personal injury cases are still filed in separate state courts, those cases and new cases are being transferred to the supervision of a single judge.
