DePuy resolution process over allegedly defective hip implants ‘unfair’

The High Court also heard yesterday DePuy wanted the hearing dates of more than 70 cases pending before the court to be set aside if its alternative resolution system was accepted by the court.
Cork solicitor Ernest Cantillon said the application by DePuy to the High Court, inviting those with cases against the company to take part in the settlement process and cases going through the system be adjourned, did not acknowledge the years of pain and suffering of many of those who have sued over the implants.
