Of all the stupid things, jesus fuck. This is going to get thrown out almost immediately. The lab is anti-GMO/pesticide, the study was funded by an anti-GMO/pesticide group, the study had no controls and was not peer reviewed or replicated.
That means that until there's a second study and it's proven beyond a shadow of a doubt that there was no issues with the "experiment" and so on that no one can sue again. Note that it's not whether or not there's a second study. It's when the data is exhaustively studied. That can take years. Instead of waiting for a second study to confirm the results, some moronic retard just went ahead and ruined it for everyone.
How's he gonna do that? He's a lawyer, not a science lab. There needs to be a second set of findings that confirms the first. Any competent judge is going to dismiss this without a confirmation study.
The lawyer is not going to hire them. They lawyer is not going to pay for it. That's all on the client.
Once the suit has been filed, there's a limited amount of time to get everything together. Science doesn't just happen. It takes time.
This is something that should have been done before the lawsuit, hence my original comment. But to hear everyone scream about what I said, you'd think that I'm saying that it's not in the food. I'm saying that a second study needed to have been done before the lawsuit. And since it's highly unlikely that a second study will be completed before the court date, the judge is very likely to dismiss it, possibly with prejudice. That means that anyone else wanting to sue now not only has to wait until a second study is done, they have to wait until the data is analyzed to make sure that it is air tight.
If the dude had waited until a second study, he might have squeaked by with just having a second study. But now it has to be studied again and then analyzed to within an inch of the data's life. That can take quite a while.
Thanks. Don't get pissed off though. Everyone loves to hate on something. Be patient, keep repeating it. Sooner or later, someone will see what's going on.

All that man's attorney needs to prove is Roundup's presence in that product.
Game Over.

So you are saying an attorney can't hire/contract an independent lab(s) to simply test for the presence of Roundup in random samples of a product?

It pisses me off that you are getting downvoted for having a different and reasonable opinion on the science. Upvote from me!
