Federal Litigation: The Number of Times a Company Has Been Sued Does Not Necessarily Mean They Are Doing Something Wrong or That They Are A Bad Company

It could simply mean they are a very active company that plaintiffs sue a lot.  You be the judge.  Here is a current list of the times Professional Compounding Centers of America has Been Sued in Federal Court.  View list here  

Just to cover a few of these cases:  Retail Pharmacy Management Services Inc. v. Professional Compounding Centers of America Inc., Case No. 5:12-cv-00280-D (W.D. Okla. filed March 14, 2012), involves an action for copyright infringement.

United States v.  Articles of drug consisting of bulk repacked pharmaceutical components, et al, No. CV-02034 (S.D. TX filed June 16, 2006) (forfeiting $55,000 worth of items that were seized; seizure included over 300 bottles/vials of four bulk APIs (domperidone, polidocanol, enrofloxacin and insulin beef powder that were repacked by PCCA as bulk APIs intended for sale to pharmacies for use in compounding human and veterinary drug products)


 And here is state case not on the list where PCCA was sued:

Carol Jean Wolfe v. Michael Anneken, formerly d/b/a Medical Village Pharmacy, Professional Compounding Centers of America, Inc.,Mangat-KUY Plastic Surgery Center, P.S.A., and Devinder S. Mangat, M.D., Kenton Circuit Court, Civil Action No. 01-CI-1771 involves pharmacy malpractice whereby the pharmacist mixed an acid solution for the Plaintiff's facial peel that caused the Plaintiff's face to burn and scar. During an eight-day trial, all parties to the case placed blame on the pharmacist for improperly mixing the solution. Ultimately, however, the jury concluded that all three Defendants shared proportionately for the Plaintiff's damages. 

Feel free to comment on any of the other litigation on the list or known about.
