A U.S. bankruptcy judge rejected Johnson & Johnson’s $10 billion proposal to settle lawsuits alleging its talc products cause ovarian cancer, marking its third failed bankruptcy attempt.

Judge Christopher Lopez ruled that J&J did not belong in bankruptcy and that its settlement lacked sufficient support from plaintiffs while overreaching in shielding non-bankrupt entities. J&J stated it will not appeal but will fight the claims in court.

Opponents argued J&J, a wealthy company, was improperly using bankruptcy to avoid trials, CNBC has reported.

The ruling allows over 60,000 lawsuits to proceed, with plaintiffs seeking their day in court.
