Victims and family members who suffered a loss due to the defective dialysis component, GranuFlo, may have their cases transferred to the District of Massachusetts. A panel of federal judges decided today that all of the GranuFlo cases that have been filed in any federal court will be managed by the Honorable Douglas P. Woodlock for pre-trial purposes. Massachusetts is the headquarters for Fresenius the manufacturer of GranuFlo as well as the location in which dozens of GranuFlo victims have already filed suit. Generally, cases filed in state court will not be subject to the transfer order.
