Liability Considerations in New York City
New York City Paragard claims file into MDL 2974 in the Northern District of Georgia before Judge Leigh May. New York's 3-year discovery rule under CPLR § 214-c runs from the date the plaintiff knew or should have known of the device fracture. Women who suffered arm breakage, retained fragments, or required hysterectomy should consult a Paragard attorney promptly.
