MEMORANDUM OF LAW IN SUPPORT OF THE MOTION OF DEFENDANT GLAXOSMITHKLINE LLC FOR A LONE PINE CASE MANAGEMENT ORDER PURSUANT TO FED. R. CIV. P. 16(c)(2)(L)

I. INTRODUCTION

This MDL has been pending for nearly three years. In that time, plaintiffs and their counsel have had ample opportunity to evaluate their claims in light of their experience in this litigation and the discovery that has occurred. Nevertheless, when plaintiffs have been forced to substantiate the alleged causal connections between Avandia exposure and their alleged injuries, large numbers of non-viable cases have fallen by the wayside.

Before filing plaintiffs’ complaints, their attorneys were obligated to perform an

“inquiry reasonable under the circumstances” and to conclude that plaintiffs’ “factual contentions ha[d] evidentiary support.” Fed. R. Civ. P. 11(b). For more than half of the 102 cases in Discovery Group I, there was no evidentiary support for plaintiffs’ claims that they had been injured by Avandia.1 However, these cases were culled only after GSK assumed the burden and cost of gathering and analyzing plaintiffs’ medical records.

1 A list of the 53 Discovery Group I cases that have been dismissed is attached as Exhibit A. Case 2:07-md-01871-CMR Document 769 Filed 08/25/10 Page 4 of 73

Plaintiffs’ lapses were not confined to early filings. As this MDL has progressed,

numerous additional cases filed in 2007, 2008, 2009 and 2010 have been dismissed. While

plaintiffs’ counsel eventually stipulated to the dismissal of a small group of these cases,2 GSK was forced to file motions to dismiss many others after plaintiffs failed to provide completed fact sheets and/or basic medical records.3 Clearly, in the absence of an appropriate order, neither

GSK nor this Court can rely on plaintiffs to have performed adequate pre-complaint

investigation, or to behave proactively when claims lack merit.

GSK urges this Court to follow the lead of numerous other MDLs and to enter a

so-called Lone Pine order, requiring all plaintiffs to produce case-specific expert reports to demonstrate that they can meet their burdens of proving key elements of their claims. Such orders can be traced to the case of Lore v. Lone Pine Corp., 1986 N.J. Super. LEXIS 1626 (Law

Div. Nov. 18, 1986). In Lone Pine, plaintiffs sued for personal injuries allegedly caused by polluted waters in the Lone Pine Landfill. Six months after suit was filed, the Court, on defendants’ motion, entered a case management order requiring plaintiffs to provide “[r]eports of treating physicians and medical or other experts, supporting each individual plaintiff’s claim of injury and causation.” Lone Pine, 1986 N.J. Super. LEXIS 1626, at *3. When plaintiffs failed to

submit the required case-specific expert reports, the court dismissed their claims with prejudice.

Id. at *9-10.

In the ensuing years, Lone Pine orders have enabled courts “to identify and cull

potentially meritless claims and streamline litigation in complex cases.” Baker v. Chevron USA,

Inc., 2007 U.S. Dist. LEXIS 6601, 2007 WL 315346, at *1 (S.D. Ohio Jan. 30, 2007).4 In this

MDL, such an order is essential to force plaintiffs to confront and confirm the viability of their

claims.

II. ARGUMENT: THE PSC’S HISTORY OF MERITLESS FILINGS DEMANDS A LONE PINE ORDER

The history and maturity of this MDL demand the entry of a Lone Pine-style case

management order. Lone Pine orders “have been routinely used by courts to manage mass tort

cases.” In re Vioxx Prods. Liab. Litig., 557 F. Supp. 2d 741, 743 (E.D. La. 2008), citing Acuna

v. Brown & Root Inc., 200 F.3d 335, 340 (5th Cir. 2000); In re Rezulin Prods. Liab. Litig., 441 F.

Supp. 2d 567, 570 (S.D.N.Y. 2006); In re Silica Prods. Liab. Litig., 398 F. Supp. 2d 563, 576

(S.D. Tex. 2005) (additional citations omitted). They “are designed to handle the complex issues

and potential burdens on defendants and the court in mass tort litigation.” Acuna, 200 F.3d at

340.

4 Such orders are permitted by Fed. R. Civ. P. 16(c)(2)(L), which vests broad discretion in district courts to “adopt[] special procedures for managing potentially difficult or protracted actions that may involve complex issues, multiple parties, difficult legal questions, or unusual proof problems.”

-3- Case 2:07-md-01871-CMR Document 769 Filed 08/25/10 Page 6 of 73

Lone Pine orders are particularly common in pharmaceutical MDLs.5 In In re

Rezulin, for example, Judge Kaplan of the Southern District of New York granted defendants’ motion for an order requiring plaintiffs—who were already required to produce completed fact sheets—to produce early case-specific expert reports. Noting that “[t]he Court is satisfied that this course is essential to the fair and efficient administration of this litigation,” Judge Kaplan ordered that every plaintiff “consider whether there are good grounds to continue the action in light of the plaintiff’s individual circumstances and the Court’s decisions.” In re Rezulin Prods.

Liab. Litig., 2005 U.S. Dist. LEXIS 46919, at *24 (S.D.N.Y. May 9, 2005). Judge Kaplan explained,

If a plaintiff and that plaintiff’s counsel conclude that there are good grounds to continue prosecuting the plaintiff’s claim, then the plaintiff -- in addition to discharging the plaintiff’s obligation to serve timely, fully completed Fact Sheets with the necessary declaration and HIPAA-compliant authorizations -- shall serve a Rule 26(a)(2) case-specific declaration, signed and sworn to by a physician or other medical expert (“Expert Report”). . . . Each Expert Report shall include the following information: . . . The dates during which the plaintiff used Rezulin and copies of the

5 Lone Pine orders are also widely utilized in toxic tort/chemical exposure cases. See, e.g., Acuna v. Brown & Root Inc., 200 F.3d 335, 338, 340 (5th Cir. 2000) (affirming trial court’s entry of Lone Pine order requiring approximately 1,600 plaintiffs to produce expert affidavits stating that their injuries were caused by uranium exposure and providing the medical or scientific basis for that opinion); Claar v. Burlington N. R.R. Co., 29 F.3d 499, 500-01, 503 (9th Cir. 1994) (upholding order requiring “affidavits from physicians listing each plaintiff’s specific injuries, the particular chemical(s) that in the physician’s opinion caused each injury, and the scientific basis for the physician’s conclusions”); Abuan v. Gen. Elec. Co., 3 F.3d 329, 331 (9th Cir. 1993) (affirming district court’s issuance of scheduling order that required plaintiffs, within 120 days, to file expert reports supporting their claim of exposure to chemicals in sufficient amount to cause increased risk of harm and to require medical monitoring); McManaway v. KBR, Inc., 265 F.R.D. 384, 388-89 (S.D. Ind. Nov. 20, 2009) (entering Lone Pine order requiring expert disclosures on exposure, injury, and causation); Burns v. Universal Crop Prot. Alliance, No. 4:07CV00535 SWW, 2007 U.S. Dist. LEXIS 71716, at *3 (E.D. Ark. Sept. 25, 2007) (entering Lone Pine order requiring eighty-two plaintiffs to provide “affidavits from fact or expert witnesses” establishing that herbicide manufacturers caused crop damage); Baker v. Chevron USA, Inc., No. 1:05-CV-227, 2006 U.S. Dist. LEXIS 54545, at *2-4, 11 (S.D. Ohio Aug. 4, 2006) (affirming dismissal of claims where plaintiff failed to comply with Lone Pine order requiring expert affidavits regarding alleged injuries from toxic chemicals emitted by a gasoline refinery); In re 1994 Exxon Chem. Plant Fire Litig., 2005 WL 6252312, at *2-3 (M.D. La. Apr. 7, 2005) (entering Lone Pine order requiring plaintiffs to “produce an affidavit from a qualified treating or other physician” and “produce some evidence linking each named plaintiff’s alleged exposure to a particular substance with an identified injury, illness, damage or other loss”).

-4- Case 2:07-md-01871-CMR Document 769 Filed 08/25/10 Page 7 of 73

documents relied upon as evidence of such use . . . [and] [t]he expert’s opinion on causation of each claimed injury and, if the expert has such an opinion, the date of onset of each claimed injury. The declaration shall include (i) the injury or injuries . . . that the expert opines was caused by Rezulin, and (ii) all grounds for opinions expressed by the expert.

Id. at *24-26.6

Similarly, in the Bextra/Celebrex MDL, Judge Breyer entered an order7

providing,

In addition to each plaintiff’s obligation . . . to serve a Plaintiff Fact Sheet (“PFS”), all responsive documents . . . , and properly executed authorizations, each plaintiff listed in Schedule A . . . and the plaintiff’s counsel, in consultation with such medical advisor(s) as they see fit to consult, shall consider whether there are good grounds to continue the action in light of the plaintiff’s individual circumstances. If so, then the plaintiff shall serve a Rule 26(a)(2) case-specific expert report regarding specific causation, signed and sworn by a physician or other medical expert . . . .

In re Bextra and Celebrex Marketing Sales Practices Prod. Liab. Litig., MDL No. 1699, No.

M:05-CV-01699-CRB, Order at 1 (N.D. Cal. Aug. 1, 2008).

In In re Vioxx, the Vioxx MDL court rejected plaintiffs’ motion to suspend or

modify an order requiring plaintiffs opting out of a global settlement to provide case-specific

expert reports substantiating their claims, because, as here, the MDL was “no longer in its

embryonic stage.” In re Vioxx, 557 F. Supp. 2d at 744. The court observed, “[A]t this advanced

stage of the litigation, it is not too much to ask a Plaintiff to provide some kind of evidence to

6 Judge Kaplan established rolling deadlines for submissions by plaintiffs with pending claims, and required that new plaintiffs submit the required expert reports within ninety days of filing their complaints. In re Rezulin, 2005 U.S. Dist. LEXIS 46919, at *24-26. After plaintiffs submitted their experts’ reports, the court entered summary judgment on the claims of 28 of the plaintiffs for failing to sustain their burden on causation. In re Rezulin Prods. Liab. Litig., 441 F. Supp. 2d 567, 579 (S.D.N.Y. 2006).

7 The Bextra/Celebrex order was entered approximately three years into the pendency of the MDL. A copy of the order is attached as Exhibit D.

-5- Case 2:07-md-01871-CMR Document 769 Filed 08/25/10 Page 8 of 73

support their claim that Vioxx caused them personal injury, whether that injury be deep vein

thrombosis, a heart attack, an ulcer, or some other malady.” Id.8

Most recently, in the Zyprexa MDL, Judge Jack Weinstein ordered plaintiffs in 61

newly filed cases to serve Rule 26(a)(2) expert reports on rolling deadlines beginning 90 days

after the order was issued, or suffer dismissal with prejudice.9 Less than two months after Judge

Weinstein entered his order, plaintiffs dismissed 29 of the 61 cases to which the order applied.10

Expert reports for the first group of five remaining cases were due on July 20, 2010. Plaintiffs did not produce expert reports for any of the cases, and defendant

(“Lilly”) filed motions to dismiss all five cases pursuant to Judge Weinstein’s order. On August

16, 2010, plaintiffs informed Lilly that they would be dismissing all five cases.11

In this MDL, for nearly three years, the PSC has habitually filed meritless claims

and allowed them to remain pending, usurping the resources of the parties and the Court. GSK

should not bear the burden of winnowing cases that never should have been filed. Nor should

the Court or the Special Master be saddled with consideration of claims that would not have

survived reasonable pre-complaint investigation. Instead, as the Vioxx court held, “if Plaintiffs’

counsel believe that [their] claims have merit, they must have some basis for that belief . . . [and]

8 Plaintiffs challenged the Vioxx order, arguing that it represented an abuse of the Court’s discretion because, in contrast to toxic tort cases like Acuna v. Brown & Root Inc., 200 F.3d 335 (5th Cir. 2000), both Merck and the Court were aware of the nature of the Vioxx plaintiffs’ injuries and of the injuries’ relationship to Merck’s conduct. See In re Vioxx Prods. Liab. Litig., No. 09-30446, 2010 WL 2802352, at *6 (5th Cir. July 16, 2010). On July 16, 2010, the Fifth Circuit rejected plaintiffs’ challenge, holding, “These grounds are insufficient . . . to warrant bypassing the clear holding in Acuna that it is within a court’s discretion to take steps to manage the complex and potentially very burdensome discovery that the cases would require.” Id. (internal quotation marks and citation omitted).

9 In re Zyprexa Prods. Liab. Litig., MDL No. 1596 (E.D.N.Y. June 2, 2010) (amending initial order entered April 21, 2010). A copy of the Zyprexa order is attached as Exhibit E.

10 See Stipulation of Dismissal dated July 22, 2010, attached as Exhibit F.

it is reasonable to require Plaintiffs to come forward” with case-specific expert reports. In re

Vioxx, 557 F. Supp. 2d at 744.12

Accordingly, this Court should enter an order in the form provided, requiring

plaintiffs to produce, within 60 days, expert reports satisfying the requirements of Rule 26,

substantiating plaintiffs’ claims that Avandia caused them a compensable injury.
