California won’t be able to label Bayer Ag’s Monsanto product Roundup (or any glyphosate products) with a Proposition 65 cancer warning after a ruling from the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals.
A California jury found that Bayer's Roundup weedkiller was not the cause of a woman's non-Hodgkin's lymphoma, Bayer said on Thursday, delivering the chemical giant its second trial victory over claims the popular herbicide causes cancer.
According to Reuters, Bayer AG won its first trial over claims its Roundup weedkiller causes cancer after a California jury found that the herbicide was not a substantial cause of a child's rare form of non-Hodgkin's lymphoma.
Bayer, trying to contain billions of dollars in legal costs, has filed a petition with the U.S. Supreme Court to reverse an appeals court verdict that upheld damages to a customer blaming his cancer on the German group's glyphosate-based weedkillers, according to Reuters.
Bayer said it will review the future of its Roundup and other glyphosate-based weedkillers in the U.S. residential market after a judge rejected a $2 billion plan to settle future claims alleging the herbicide causes cancer. The company said it will continue to supply glyphosate products for agricultural users.
According to Reuters, Bayer AG said that it will not ask the U.S. Supreme Court to overturn a $20.5 million award to Dewayne Johnson, a groundskeeper who claimed the company's Roundup weedkiller caused his cancer.
