Kenvue And Pharmacy Chains Ask Full Second Circuit To Undo Tylenol Ruling
The panel's July ruling revived more than 500 lawsuits by finding a Manhattan judge wrongly excluded three autism-link expert witnesses.
- Kenvue Inc. and four pharmacy chains asked the Second Circuit (Docket 24-2360) on September 15, 2026, to rehear its 500-lawsuit revival ruling.
- The case is captioned "In re: Acetaminophen-ASD-ADHD Products Liability Litigation" in the circuit's own docket.
- The panel had ruled Judge Denise Cote wrongly excluded three of five expert witnesses in July.
Why it matters: Whoever controls which experts a jury may hear controls the verdict before the trial begins.
