Where to File in California
California paraquat cases can be filed in the superior court of the county where the plaintiff resides or where exposure occurred. Fresno County, Kern County, and other Central Valley counties are primary venues given the concentration of agricultural operations and farmworker populations. Federal claims are coordinated through MDL 3004 in S.D. Illinois. California’s strong discovery rules and broad document production requirements benefit plaintiffs.
