SAN FRANCISCO - A lawyer for a man who sued Bayer AG unit Monsanto after developing cancer on Wednesday told a jury about the company’s alleged efforts to influence scientists and regulators, a day after the jury found Bayer’s glyphosate-based weed killer Roundup to have caused the man’s disease.
Liability and potential damages will now be decided by the same jury in a second trial phase that began on Wednesday after the initial phase focused on scientific evidence alone. The trial, which began on Feb. 25, is also a test case for a future litigation. More than 760 of the 11,200 Roundup cases nationwide are consolidated in the federal court in San Francisco that is hearing Hardeman’s case.
