The Judicial Panel on Multi-District Litigation entered an order centralizing the Stryker Rejuvenate Hip Litigation, MDL 2441 to the District of Minnesota before Judge Donovan W. Frank. The MDL panel made clear that the judge presiding over the litigation was the most important factor in selection, [s]uccessful coordination....hinges on the efforts of the involved judges.
It will be interesting to see if claimants feel comfortable with the District of Minnesota or opt to file claims in other available venues.
