Liability Considerations in San Jose
Hernia Mesh Litigation in San Jose
San Jose and the broader Silicon Valley region produce hernia mesh claims with above-average economic damages due to the tech industry's high median wages. California's discovery rule under CCP § 335.1 tolls the 2-year limitations period until the claimant knew or should have known of the mesh-related injury. Santa Clara County juries have historically applied rigorous standards in product liability cases. Federal cases transfer from the N.D. California to MDL 2846 in Columbus, Ohio.
