Liability Considerations in Cleveland
Hernia Mesh Litigation in Cleveland
Cleveland's N.D. Ohio cases are filed separately from MDL 2846 (which sits in the S.D. Ohio in Columbus), but can be transferred to MDL upon motion. Ohio ORC § 2305.10 provides a 2-year discovery-based limitations period. Cleveland Clinic's nationally recognized Center for Abdominal Core Health has treated thousands of hernia mesh revision patients and its surgeons are frequently retained as expert witnesses in MDL 2846. Ohio has no statute of repose for product liability claims, protecting Cleveland claimants with older mesh implants.
