The Pennsylvania Supreme Court has denied Johnson & Johnson’s request to remove a Philadelphia judge from a pelvic mesh trial, but the pharmaceutical giant still has a request pending that seeks to boot the same judge from the pelvic mesh mass tort entirely.

The high court recently denied a motion that Ethicon, a subsidiary of J&J, filed seeking to have the justices use their King’s Bench jurisdiction to remove Judge Kenneth Powell from hearing the case McFarland v. Ethicon, which is currently ongoing.
