Bard multidistrict litigation (MDL), an MDL that is comprised of thousands of consolidated transvaginal mesh lawsuits, recently filed a new pretrial order (PTO) on August 18, 2014.* PTO #136 pertains to the pretrial discovery process, and more specifically to the management of certain pieces of physically sensitive evidence.

Properly Handling Sensitive Evidence

According to PTO #136, both the plaintiffs and the defendants put forth a request of the court to draft official guidelines specifying the proper handling of sensitive evidence, especially biomaterial evidence, which in this particular case primarily means transvaginal mesh. In response, the court drafted the “Stipulated Evidence Preservation Protocol”.

The goal of the newly written protocol is that both parties be given equal access to the properly conserved evidence, which is referred to as “Material” and “Materials” in the PTO.
