Liability Considerations in Indianapolis
Hernia Mesh Litigation in Indianapolis
Indianapolis's S.D. Indiana courthouse is the primary federal origination venue for Indiana hernia mesh claims before MDL 2846 transfer. Indiana Code § 34-20-3-1 imposes a 2-year product liability limitations period with discovery rule tolling from the date the plaintiff knew or should have known of the mesh-related injury. Indiana has a 10-year statute of repose from the product's delivery — an important deadline for claimants with older implants who have not yet filed.
