US Supreme Court rules in favor of Monsanto in the Durnell case

LEVERKUSEN, Germany--(BUSINESS WIRE)--The U.S. Supreme Court decision is good for science, farmers, and industries that depend on regulatory clarity for innovation. It should help significantly contain the Roundup™ litigation after nearly a decade of legal battles. The ruling should result in the dismissal of current warning-based claims and bar future failure-to-warn claims.

Monsanto will continue to pursue final approval of the class settlement and other elements of its multi-pronged strategy to contain the Roundup™ litigation.

The company is still reviewing the U.S. Supreme Court’s ruling and will provide a more comprehensive statement shortly.
