Covington has entered an appearance for CooperCompanies, a medical device maker comprised of CooperVision and CooperSurgical, in a pending product liability lawsuit. The court action, filed July 9 in California Northern District Court by Girard Sharp on behalf of two anonymous plaintiffs, is part of a wave of cases brought on behalf of plaintiffs whose embryos died during in-vitro fertilization due to alleged contamination of the defendant's embryo culture media lots, which were recalled in Dec. 2023.
