The Pennsylvania Superior Court has upheld the reduction of a $26.6 million verdict awarded to a woman who needed four knee surgeries after taping a promotional video to show the success of her initial knee-replacement procedure.
A three-judge panel consisting of Judges Jack A. Panella, Alice Beck Dubow and Lillian Harris Ransom ruled against defendants Public Communications Inc. and orthopedic medical device manufacturer Zimmer Inc. in their appeal claiming that the reduced verdict of $20.6 million was still too high.
