The state started presenting their case today and it’s slow going. Tomorrow, Wednesday, the case against the FDA and AAFCO starts, as well as continuing the state case.
As of this update, the judge has made no decisions, no conclusions have been made. We are still hearing and validating the evidence.
The outcome of these lawsuits affect all members of the real pet food industry. We won’t rush the outcome; instead, we are fighting for justice and fairness in regulation. Based on science.
Tomorrow, Wednesday, October 16, the state continues to present their case while a portion of the participants move into federal court. To be discussed in federal court are not just the Answers lawsuit but both motions to intervene – one motion to intervene from this trade association, another representing consumers.
We will provide an update tomorrow.
