April 2022: The MDL Paraquat class action judge will have a status conference on April 1st to review where the litigation is headed and how best to take the bellwether lawsuits forward for trial in November 2022. 44 new paraquat lawsuits have been added to the MDL in the last two weeks. At this pace, April 2022 will be the busiest month for new files yet. Last week, the parties filed their class-action bellwether picks with the Paraquat MDL judge. Those choices, however, have not been made public.
May 2022: In the last month, over 50 new cases have been added to the Paraquat Lawsuit Multidistrict Litigation (MDL). A group of six patients was recently selected by the Paraquat MDL court for the initial Paraquat Parkinson's disease bellwether trials. As a result, the first trial in November 2022 is approaching soon. The strategy is to select 16 paraquat claims from among the almost 1000 Parkinson's disease litigation claims filed. Following some limited fact discovery in these instances, paraquat attorneys on both sides submitted a preference list to the MDL court, ranking the 16 cases in order of priority. Attorneys for plaintiffs seek the finest facts for their clients, while defense attorneys want the worst. The judge whittled the list down to six Paraquat claims based on these rankings.

If you were sexually abused while confined in a New Jersey juvenile detention or state-run youth facility, you are not alone—and you still have rights. Survivors across the state have filed hundreds of civil cases against New Jersey for abuse in facilities including the New Jersey Training School (Jamesburg) and other state and county-operated youth lockups. In July 2025, reporters noted more than 350 lawsuits by former detainees. Decades of allegations describe a “culture of abuse” in New Jersey’s juvenile system, including staff sexual assaults, coerced acts, and retaliation for reporting. A 50-plaintiff lawsuit specifically targets the New Jersey Training School in Monroe Township for abuse spanning the 1970s–2010s; the Governor has publicly vowed to close the facility.
New Jersey overhauled its civil deadlines for sexual abuse claims in 2019. If the abuse happened when you were under 18, you generally may file a civil suit until age 55 or within seven years of reasonably discovering the injury—whichever is later.
You may qualify if you were sexually abused while confined in a New Jersey juvenile facility (state or county), whether by staff or by others due to staff negligence. Facilities implicated in recent filings include the New Jersey Training School (Jamesburg), the Juvenile Medium Security Facility and Female Secure Care & Intake Facility in Bordentown, see a full list of eligible facilities listed below. If you are unsure where you were held, we can help identify the facility from your records.
