Bayer loses bid to toss some claims in Essure class action suit

A federal judge in Philadelphia will allow six women who are suing Bayer (ETR:BAYN) over its Essure sterilization implant to proceed with their personal injury claims and three others to pursue their breach-of-warranty claims. One woman who became pregnant following implantation with Essure will be able to pursue her claim that Bayer fraudulently concealed the risk of pregnancy, the judge ruled.
