Monsanto Facing Roundup Consumer Fraud Class Action Lawsuit
Were you looking for Monsanto RoundUp lawsuits?
Los Angeles, CA: A consumer fraud class action lawsuit has been filed against Monsanto, the makers of Roundup, a weedkiller sold across the US. Filed by Elvis Mirzaie, Edison Mirzaie and Romi Mirzaie, the lawsuit states Roundup' advertising claims the weedkiller targets an enzyme found only in plants. According to the complaint, the enzyme is found in people. "Therefore, where (Monsanto) advertises that Round targets an enzyme 'not found in people,' such claim is objectively false and inherently misleading,"the lawsuit states.
According to the complaint, the enzyme, called EPSP synthase, is produced by "weeds, plants, bacteria, fungi, algae and other microbes." And, "over one hundred trillion bacteria"that produce the enzyme can be found in humans, the lawsuit states.
The plaintiffs are seeking a court order to have that information taken off all Roundup labels. The plaintiffs are seeking class status for those that purchased Roundup within the last four years. The suit is also seeking an unspecified amount in damages plus court costs.The case is: U.S. District Court for the Central District of California case number 2:15-cv-04361.
