01 · Your filing deadline

What is the deadline in Illinois?

Illinois: 2 years for personal injury (735 ILCS 5/13-202). Discovery rule applies — the statute begins when the plaintiff knew or reasonably should have known of the injury and its connection to Dupixent. A lawyer can confirm yours.

2 years from discovery of injury

Deadlines vary; a lawyer can confirm yours. An older diagnosis or a past filing window does not, by itself, establish whether you have a claim.

02 · Where cases are heard

Where would my case be heard?

Illinois is a significant Dupixent litigation venue with a strong plaintiff bar and experienced mass tort judges in Cook County and the Northern District. On June 4, 2026, the JPML centralized federal Dupixent CTCL cases in MDL No. 3180 in the District of New Jersey before Judge Zahid N. Quraishi. Northwestern and University of Chicago medical centers provide advanced CTCL diagnostic capabilities.

Dupixent CTCL cases in Illinois are filed in the Northern District of Illinois (Chicago) or in Cook County Circuit Court. The Northern District has a dedicated complex litigation program and has managed major pharmaceutical MDLs. Cook County is historically one of the most plaintiff-favorable state court venues in the country. Illinois eliminated its tort reform damage caps when the state Supreme Court struck them down in Lebron v. Gottlieb Memorial Hospital (2010), meaning there are no statutory caps on compensatory or punitive damages in product liability cases.
