Johnson & Johnson Talcum Powder Cases

VERDICT

Trial
04/29/26 – 06/05/26

Summary

A California state court jury has delivered a major win for Johnson & Johnson in a bellwether trial over claims the company’s popular talc-based Baby Powder contained asbestos.

The Los Angeles County jury returned their verdict on June 5 following a lengthy trial that began in late April. The verdict comes on the heels of a $40 million plaintiff win in a similar trial last year before the same judge, potentially setting the stage for a third clash later this year over claims asbestos supposedly present in Johnson’s Baby Powder caused women to develop ovarian cancer.
