Judge Blake moves on health lawsuits

BALTIMORE-U.S. District Judge Catherine Blake Thursday dismissed the $800 million brain cancer lawsuit against the mobile phone industry.

Today, Blake heard oral argument on industry’s motion to dismiss six class action lawsuits that take issue with the marketing of mobile phone products that plaintiffs claim could be harmful to consumers. Blake also heard oral argument on a motion to send a brain cancer lawsuit back to federal court in California.

There are eight other brain cancer lawsuits that could be dealt with later by Blake.
