The New Frontier: Genetically Modified Organism Litigation
Dana Point, CA
Overview
Sarah Brew will be speaking at the 2012 GMA Food Claims and Litigation Conference on the topic of genetically modified organism litigation. As more genetically modified crops are entering the food supply, consumer groups have stepped up efforts to ban or require labeling of foods that contain Genetically Modified Organisms (GMOs). Beyond calling for called for boycotts of popular brands and retail stores, consumers have now begun filing suit, claiming that labeling products containing GMOs as "natural" violates state consumer fraud statutes. This presentation discusses the use and regulation of GMOs as ingredients in food and increasing litigation relating to GMO ingredients.
