Court refuses Robins appeal on judge impartiality in Dalkon Shield cases
The Supreme Court declined to hear A H Robins Co claim challenging U S District Judge Frank G Theis's impartiality in Dalkon Shield litigation. Robins seeks to disqualify Theis after earlier attempts to remove him and amid allegations surrounding Judge Miles W Lord's criticisms. Since 1972 more than 10,000 claims have been filed, with Robins settling over 7,300 for roughly $233 million after taking the device off the market in 1974.
