You may have heard about juries awarding large verdicts in lawsuits alleging that talc-based Johnson’s Baby Powder can cause ovarian cancer or mesothelioma and that, in relation to this, a Johnson & Johnson subsidiary, LTL Management LLC (LTL), voluntarily filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy.

But you may not know this: in the majority of jury trials, including six out of eight trials that happened in 2021, juries have concluded that Johnson & Johnson’s product was not responsible for the plaintiffs’ cancer. In other instances, judges have dismissed cases outright based on their own review of the facts, and many of the verdicts against Johnson & Johnson that have been through the appellate process have also been overturned.
Despite the evidence presented in court, and the fact that Johnson & Johnson discontinued the sale of Johnson’s Baby Powder in the United States and Canada in 2020, there continue to be more lawsuits filed and a few extraordinary verdicts in state courts that have contradicted the science. That’s why last year, Johnson & Johnson began a process to resolve these lawsuits in a way that would be reasonable for all involved, including anyone who may have legal claims against Johnson & Johnson currently or in the future. To achieve this goal, LTL voluntarily filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy, following an established and legal process for resolving these cases. You can learn more about this here.
