Jury Clears Johnson & Johnson of Negligence in Baby Powder Cancer Lawsuit
Summary
A Los Angeles jury ruled on June 5 that Johnson & Johnson was not negligent in selling its talc-based baby powder and other cosmetic talc products. The lawsuit, brought by the families of three women, alleged that the company’s talc-based baby powder caused ovarian cancer because the talc was at risk of contamination with asbestos. The verdict cleared Johnson & Johnson of negligence in that case.
