Judge Mustafa Kasubhai

The last of two lawsuits filed against the J.H. Baxter company was resolved Friday. No damages were awarded and plaintiffs have no opportunity to refile litigation related to its shuttered Eugene plant.

In the last two weeks, two class action lawsuits against the J.H. Baxter company have been reclassified as civil suits. Both filed in the spring of 2021, they stemmed from noxious odors and dioxins from its now-shuttered Eugene plant.
