Imprelis Class Action Lawsuit

According to PRWeb.com, the federal judge overseeing an Imprelis class action lawsuits (Wright & Schulte LLC.) in Pennsylvania federal court has granted tentative approval to an Imprelis class action lawsuit settlement. Also, according to PRWeb.com, the terms of the Imprelis class action lawsuit settlement require DuPont to compensate tens of thousands of property owners for their dead and damaged trees.

The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) issued a Stop Sale and Removal Order for Imprelis in August 2011, after the agency investigated hundreds of reports of Imprelis tree death throughout the Northeast and Midwest U.S. Imprelis had only been approved for sale in October 2010, but by the time it was pulled from the market, it had killed or damaged thousands of ornamental landscape trees.
