What To Make Of Johnson & Johnson's $4.7 Billion Verdict For Talc Products


Johnson Johnson was recently ordered by a jury in Missouri to pay $550m in compensation and an additional $4.14 billion in punitive damages, in a case related to its talc products. The company was previously able to get a relief in a similar case last year, where a woman alleged that she developed ovarian cancer after using JJ's talc products, and it will be interesting to see if the company gets a similar relief in this case, given it plans to appeal the verdict.
