Pennsylvania SCS Lawsuits in State or Federal Court
PA spinal cord stimulator lawsuits can be filed in state or federal court. Selecting a jurisdiction is generally based on: 1) whether all parties inhabit Pennsylvania, and 2) the severity of SCS burns or infection.
Pennsylvania State Spinal Cord Claims
When all parties reside in Pennsylvania, spinal cord stimulator lawsuits of any magnitude can be filed in the State’s county courts (PA Courts Website). Title 231 of the Pennsylvania Code sets forth the State’s procedural law for SCS malfunction claims.
The State of Pennsylvania follows a modified comparative negligence rule. Accordingly, a Pennsylvania spinal cord stimulator lawyer can recover damages for wrongful conduct by Abbott Labs or Boston Scientific provided the plaintiff is less than 51% at fault. However, the nerve victim’s financial award may be reduced by their own degree of fault (if any).
3rd Circuit Spinal Cord Claims in Pennsylvania
Pennsylvania is part of the Third聽Circuit of the federal court system, and individual spinal cord stimulator lawsuits can be filed at its local U.S. District Court. Pain management appeals are heard by the 3rd Circuit Court of Appeals.
Provided the nerve injuries are severe, SCS claims can be filed in this court against defendants nationwide.
However, federal spinal cord stimulator lawsuits filed in Pennsylvania may be transferred to a centralized jurisdiction pursuant to a burn and infection Multi-District Litigation (MDL) Transfer Order. (Follow this link for our additional information on 3rd Circuit spinal cord stimulator compensation.)
