Anne Arundel County v. Express Scripts

Maryland

(Md., filed May 29, 2025): Arguing that the Court should join other states in affirming that public nuisance law cannot be converted into an all-encompassing cause of action.  The nation’s courts have largely rejected expanding the tort of public nuisance in response to comparable allegations.  Product liability law and applicable regulatory regimes, not the tort of public nuisance, should remain the bodies of law for governing product-based risks.
