Stryker and National Plaintiff’s Leadership in MDL 2768 of the consolidated proceedings before Judge Talwani announced in Court this morning a proposed Master Settlement Agreement (MSA) for eligible claimants. The Stryker Hip Settlement includes those cases filed in the MDL 2768 in Massachusetts, the MCL 624 consolidated proceedings in New Jersey and/or other jurisdictions for cases already and pending. It is believed the eligibility of the failed implants include both recalled and unrecalled cobalt chromium V40 heads and compatible stem system configurations including Accolade TMZF, Accolade 2, Citation, Meridian and Rejuvenate.
This initial settlement terms are confidential and were not publicly disclosed. The settlements amounts are believed to vary and criteria for amounts of individual offers will be based upon varying factors including the degree of harm and components necessitated to be removed. It was stated that this settlement will not settle all filed claims. It is believed, however, to be a substantial step in the right direction to begin resolving claims in the underlying Stryker hip litigation. It is believed that this settlement will resolve the first cases picked for the initial Bellwether trials and discovery will be stayed through the Summer of 2019.
