The most recent state court trial involving baby formula has resulted in a win for the defendants. A St. Louis jury sided with Abbott and Mead Johnson in a case where a mother of a premature infant, who developed NEC, claimed that the companies failed to warn about the risks of the disease. This verdict is surprising, especially after two state trials earlier this year resulted in huge wins for the plaintiffs.

In the MDL (Multidistrict Litigation), there was also major news earlier this month. The parties involved proposed a schedule for the four bellwether cases, with the first trial set to begin on May 5, 2025. These trials will continue through February 2026, but the schedule still needs to be approved by Judge Pallmeyer.
