Farmers, landscapers, groundskeepers and homeowners who used Roundup and were later diagnosed with non-Hodgkin lymphoma may qualify, depending on the claims still available and the settlement terms if approved. Every case depends on medical records and timing.
On June 25, 2026, the U.S. Supreme Court ruled in Monsanto Co. v. Durnell that federal pesticide law (FIFRA) preempts state-law failure-to-warn claims that would require a cancer warning on Roundup’s EPA-approved label (opinion). That makes warning-label claims much harder, though the Court did not decide every other theory. Separately, Monsanto has proposed a $7.25 billion class settlement in Missouri state court meant to resolve many current and future Roundup lymphoma claims; as of October 2026 the judge has not ruled on final approval. Federal cases remain in MDL No. 2741 before Judge Vince Chhabria in the Northern District of California. Because the rules are changing, talk with a lawyer about your options and any settlement deadlines.
