A Pennsylvania appellate court has rejected a medical device maker’s attempts to toss a $20 million verdict, but has agreed that the verdict needed to be reduced by $5 million.

A split three-judge panel of the Superior Court on Friday largely affirmed the multimillion-dollar award a Philadelphia jury handed up in 2017 in Engleman v. Ethicon. The verdict, awarded to a woman allegedly injured by a defective pelvic mesh product, included $2.5 million in compensatory damages, as well as $17.5 million in punitive damages.
