Los Angeles Talc Mesothelioma Verdict Overturned: What the J&J $950 Million Reversal Means for Your Family If you are reading this because you or someone you love used Johnson & Johnson talcum powder for years and then heard the word mesothelioma, you already know the geography of this fight. A jury in Los Angeles County Superior Court sat through the evidence, answered 25 separate questions about what Johnson & Johnson knew and when, found the company 100 percent responsible, and handed down a $966 million verdict — $16 million in compensatory damages and $950 million to punish the company for what it hid.
