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?

Texas ranks second nationally in Dupixent prescriptions, with heavy prescribing through major health systems including MD Anderson, UT Southwestern, and Baylor Scott & White. Texas's proportionate responsibility statute and damage caps in certain cases create a more defense-friendly environment than coastal jurisdictions, but the Eastern District of Texas (Marshall/Texarkana divisions) has historically been receptive to pharmaceutical plaintiff cases.

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.
