Dutch Vioxx consumers file class action lawsuit against Merck

While legal experts believe that Merck is highly likely to lose the Vioxx lawsuit by Mike Humeston in the ongoing trial in New Jersey, the company has some more lawsuits to deal with - this time from The Netherlands. Kenneth B Moll & Associates - a class action and mass tort law firm in the US that is working with victims in as many as 57 countries - filed the first class action on behalf of all Dutch consumers who took the painkiller and suffered personal injuries.
