Where to File in Texas
Dupixent CTCL cases in Texas may be filed in four federal districts. The Eastern District of Texas has a history of plaintiff-favorable pharmaceutical rulings. The Southern District (Houston) and Northern District (Dallas) have heavy dockets but experienced judges in complex product liability. Texas's proportionate responsibility statute (Chapter 33) can reduce recovery if multiple defendants are involved. Texas caps punitive damages at the greater of $200,000 or two times economic damages plus $750,000 in non-economic damages (Tex. Civ. Prac. & Rem. Code § 41.008).
