A previous Notice to the Bar requested comments on an application for mass tort designation of all New Jersey state court litigation relating to Plavix. The application was submitted pursuant to Court Rule 4:38A and Directive No. 7-09, the “Revised Mass Tort Guidelines.” This Notice is to advise that the Supreme Court, after considering the application and the comments received, has determined not to designate the Plavix litigation as a mass tort, but rather to assign it to Middlesex County for centralized case management by Superior Court Judge Jessica R. Mayer.
Accordingly, published with this Notice are the Supreme Court’s July 12, 2011 Order and Judge Mayer’s July 21, 2011 Initial Case Management Order. Both orders also are posted on the Judiciary’s Internet website (www.njcourts.com) in the Mass Tort Information Center (http://www.judiciary.state.nj.us/mass-tort/index.htm).
