April 2022: The MDL Paraquat class action judge will have a status conference on April 1st to review where the litigation is headed and how best to take the bellwether lawsuits forward for trial in November 2022. 44 new paraquat lawsuits have been added to the MDL in the last two weeks. At this pace, April 2022 will be the busiest month for new files yet. Last week, the parties filed their class-action bellwether picks with the Paraquat MDL judge. Those choices, however, have not been made public.

May 2022: In the last month, over 50 new cases have been added to the Paraquat Lawsuit Multidistrict Litigation (MDL). A group of six patients was recently selected by the Paraquat MDL court for the initial Paraquat Parkinson's disease bellwether trials. As a result, the first trial in November 2022 is approaching soon. The strategy is to select 16 paraquat claims from among the almost 1000 Parkinson's disease litigation claims filed. Following some limited fact discovery in these instances, paraquat attorneys on both sides submitted a preference list to the MDL court, ranking the 16 cases in order of priority. Attorneys for plaintiffs seek the finest facts for their clients, while defense attorneys want the worst. The judge whittled the list down to six Paraquat claims based on these rankings.

Philip Foglietta, head football coach at Brooklyn's Poly Prep Country Day School from 1966 to 1991, allegedly sexually abused numerous male students during his tenure. Reports suggest that school administrators were aware of the abuse as early as 1966 but failed to take appropriate action, purportedly to protect the school's reputation and athletic success. Victims who reported the abuse were often dismissed or threatened with expulsion. In 2009, twelve former students filed a federal lawsuit accusing Poly Prep of covering up decades of sexual abuse. The lawsuit was settled in December 2012 for an undisclosed amount, though reports indicate the settlement was approximately $10 million. In 2014, the school issued a public apology acknowledging the abuse and its mishandling of allegations, leading to the resignation of Headmaster David Harman and Board Chairman Scott Smith. A permanent memorial was established on campus to honor the victims.
