Amicus Letters Filed in California Supreme Court in Support of Monsanto’s Petition for Review of Johnson Case

Multiple amicus letters have been filed in support of Monsanto’s petition for review of the Johnson case before the California Supreme Court, representing public interest, trade and commercial entities. Collectively, the letters argue that the Court should grant review of the case based on concerns with the appellate court’s rulings on federal preemption, the admissibility of expert testimony under Sargon, and punitive damages, all of which are at the center of Monsanto’s appeal.
