What’s with all these great rulings lately? Judges finally waking up or is there something in the water. This is a great ruling by the NJSC and I will toast my first drink to these judges….
You two are absolutely right. I mean, if I mfg and sell a product that directly leads to someone dying, why should I be held accountable. Where’s the personal responsibility. Before these people that are trying to sue started using the Vioxx, they should have went to college, majored in chemistry, got their medical degree and then researched the medication, and known not to take it.
Give me an f’ing break. I truely hope you both get sick, and the medication you’re prescribed makes you even sicker. Then you can’t sue, and your respective estates go broke paying your huge medical bills. Good luck luck with that haters.
You say you want us to die and call us haters? Did you pay any attention to the reason for the judges decision? Just for a while let’s pretend that the law prevails rather than what you feel should happen. That’s all that Mary and I are commenting on.

Everyone who wants sanity in the courts should die! (Sarcasm ended)
It is good to see judges applying some thought to their rulings recently. Maybe the toxic dump that is Jersey finally has something the rest of the country wants? Okay, the sarcasm wasn’t over.
I don’t see how paying for a prescription for Vioxx caused any damage to the union health plan. If the patient had a heart attach attributed to using Vioxx, the patient should be the one filing suit, not the Union. What am I missing?
I think Jeff is unclear about the outcome of this ruling. The Judges created an opportunity for the individuals that got sick from vioxx to continue their claims. All the Judges did was to shut-down the class action as there are too many variables involved. Also, the unions’ RX plans were only providing this medication at the request of the patients’ doctors. They have no real claim as far as I can see.
Did the RX program get sued and suffer a loss because they correctly filled a prescription? Come on!
I believe that the case the health plan is making (and I am neither a proponent nor a detractor, merely the conveyor of fact so please don’t condemn the messenger) is for current and future damages as a result of the increased risk of having to cover people in its plan that suffer a stroke or heart attack. The argument would be that those added risks would not be there had the plan known of the danger of Vioxx. And New Jersey is absolutely right, this is NOT a case suitable for class action status – good for them.

The same thought occured to me. Maybe we might actually be seeing a move to sanity in the courts. We can only hope.

Wow Jeff, you appear to be the only hater here. You suck and that’s sad.
Maybe Jeff got his drugs mixed up with Viagra. Seems to be a p***k that feels no pain!
