American Meat Institute v. Lehman (Cal. Ct. App. - Dec. 12, 2009)

By Shaun Martin

Proposition 65 requires consumer warnings in California regarding various health risks. The American Meat Institute doesn't like 'em, or at least doesn't like 'em as applied to their product. So they sue, seeking a declaration that these warnings are pre-empted by federal law.

MoFo.

Just proving that even do-gooder law firms have to eat. In this case, meat.
