U.S. Court Dismisses ‘Agent Orange’ Case Against Chemical Firms
The decision was handed down by the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit in New York involving a case brought against Dow Chemical Co., Monsanto Co. and other companies that had earlier been dismissed by a U.S. District Court.
In a written ruling, the appeals court judges said “we agree with the conclusions reached by the District Court in this case.”
