The Supreme Court Case That Could Let Pesticide Companies Off ...
The Justices will soon decide whether families, workers, and communities still have a path to justice when toxic products make them sick.
earthjustice.orgHere’s the most recent class-action–related update I can confirm right now: a U.S. court has authorized notice for a proposed large settlement resolving claims that exposure to Roundup and other glyphosate-based weed killers causes non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL).[1][2]
What’s the latest (April 2026 timeframe)
- Preliminary approval + notice authorized: A court granted preliminary approval of a proposed class action settlement involving claims tied to Roundup/glyphosate and non-Hodgkin lymphoma.[2][1]
- Monetary scope: The proposed settlement is described as up to $7.25 billion.[1][2]
- Deadlines mentioned in the notice materials:
- Exclusion deadline: June 4, 2026 (if you want to opt out and sue separately).[2][1]
- Objection deadline: June 4, 2026.[1][2]
- Final approval hearing: July 9, 2026.[2][1]
Important context
- The materials also state Monsanto denies wrongdoing and liability, and that the court has not made a finding on the merits.[1][2]
If you tell me which state/country you’re in and whether you’re looking for (1) settlements you can claim from, (2) cases that are getting dismissed or appealed, or (3) updates specifically about Roundup, I can narrow this to the most relevant “latest news” items.
