April 2022: The MDL Paraquat class action judge will have a status conference on April 1st to review where the litigation is headed and how best to take the bellwether lawsuits forward for trial in November 2022. 44 new paraquat lawsuits have been added to the MDL in the last two weeks. At this pace, April 2022 will be the busiest month for new files yet. Last week, the parties filed their class-action bellwether picks with the Paraquat MDL judge. Those choices, however, have not been made public.
May 2022: In the last month, over 50 new cases have been added to the Paraquat Lawsuit Multidistrict Litigation (MDL). A group of six patients was recently selected by the Paraquat MDL court for the initial Paraquat Parkinson's disease bellwether trials. As a result, the first trial in November 2022 is approaching soon. The strategy is to select 16 paraquat claims from among the almost 1000 Parkinson's disease litigation claims filed. Following some limited fact discovery in these instances, paraquat attorneys on both sides submitted a preference list to the MDL court, ranking the 16 cases in order of priority. Attorneys for plaintiffs seek the finest facts for their clients, while defense attorneys want the worst. The judge whittled the list down to six Paraquat claims based on these rankings.

The EPA has revealed that GenX, a chemical compound present in the drinking water of over a million North Carolinians, is more toxic than previously thought. Their recent toxicology assessment indicates that even low levels of GenX in drinking water can harm human health. GenX belongs to the family of PFAS, or "forever chemicals," known for their environmental persistence. Chemours' Fayetteville Works plant is a significant source of GenX in North Carolina, along with International Paper and DAK Americas. GenX was initially considered a safer alternative to older PFAS, but the EPA's assessment suggests it may be as or more toxic than its predecessors, leading to concerns about its health effects, including various cancers, reproductive issues, thyroid disease, & more.
