A New York federal judge has ruled in favor of Bayer AG against nearly 1,300 lawsuits filed by women who say they suffered internal injuries from the company’s Mirena intra-uterine contraceptive device.
U.S. District Judge Cathy Seibel in White Plains said on Thursday that there was no way for the lawsuits to continue after her earlier ruling barring crucial testimony from plaintiffs’ experts.
Lawsuits against Bayer over Mirena started to pile up in 2011 and were consolidated in the New York court in 2013.
