Seroquel Lawsuits Back To Home Courts?
Many of you are aware that there is a complex, class action lawsuit against AstraZeneca in federal district court in Florida. Yesterday, the judge in the case said she'd urge a panel of judges to send 6,000 lawsuits against AZ over various accusations involving Seroquel back to their original state courts. While this will slow down the litigation for plaintiffs, the reality is that this might be good news for injured parties, as the federal court judge was engaging in some wacky rulings and throwing out cases and evidence, according to a participant in the proceedings I've spoken with. We shall see.
Overall, AZ faces 14,000 Seroquel-related lawsuits.

That is great news and I truly hope justice is served properly, because people injured by Seroquel with lifetime body damage should not be cast aside as AstraZeneca gets away with penalty payment to the government--a hand slap--where the justice needs to be served is for people whose lives have been permanently ruined from taking a prescribed drug!
