: Breaking Legal NewsCourt won't stop hormone replacement lawsuits
By (Breaking Legal News)
The Supreme Court won't reconsider a decision to reinstate more than 100 lawsuits filed by women who claimed that hormone replacement therapy caused breast cancer.
The high court refused on Tuesday to hear an appeal from Wyeth LLC and other pharmaceutical companies.
The 8th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals overturned a federal judge's decision to throw out many of the lawsuits.
