ORDER
AND NOW, this 21st day of February, 2017, upon consideration of Defendants’ Motion
to Dismiss Plaintiffs’ Second Amended Complaints, and all documents filed in connection
therewith, and for the reasons set forth in the accompanying Memorandum, IT IS HEREBY
ORDERED that the Motion is GRANTED IN PART and DENIED IN PART as follows:
1.

Defendants’ Motion is GRANTED as to:

a.

Count I insofar as it rests on allegations that Bayer failed to confirm that
doctors are knowledgeable hysteroscopists, ensure that doctors monitored
their patients following their completion of training, and ensure that that
doctors were certified;

b.

Count II insofar as it rests on a theory that Bayer should have withdrawn
Essure;

c.

Count III insofar as it rest on the two statements in Paragraphs 146(g) and
146(h);

d.

Count IV insofar as it rests on the statements in Paragraphs 158(a)-(j), (l)(p), and (r)-(u); and

e.
2.

Count VI.

Defendants’ Motion is DENIED in all other respects.

BY THE COURT:
