Avandia Heart-related Injuries Statute of Limitations Bar Date
In re Avandia Marketing, Sales Practices and Products Liability Litigation, PICS Case No. 12-1479 (E.D. Pa. Aug. 7, 2012) Rufe, J. (12 pages)
A reasonable person who knew that he or she had suffered a heart-related injury after taking Avandia was on notice to investigate the possible link between the injury and Avandia use by Dec. 31, 2007; because plaintiffs did not file their personal injury claims within the applicable statute of limitations, defendant’s motions for summary judgment were granted.
