A recent settlement in a class-action lawsuit filed against Bertolli olive oil has consumers happy. A California-based company agreed to pay $7 million to resolve the ensuing litigation and avoid ongoing litigation. However, eligible consumers must file their claims by September 28, 2018. A spokesman for Deoleo said it would not comment on the class-action lawsuit. It should be noted that the olive oil is imported from Italy, which is the target of most Bertolli olive oil class actions.

The case has some important provisions for those wishing to file a class action suit.

Specifically, the company agreed to change the packaging of its products and adhere to stricter testing protocols during bottling. Plaintiff Fahey alleged that Bertolli mislabeled its olive oil. The plaintiffs relied on a University of California at Davis study on olive oil quality to support their claims. The case was dismissed by Judge Christopher Cooper on methodological grounds, as well as geographical assumptions.

The lawsuit argues that the company failed to properly label its extra virgin olive oil, which is composed of a blend of refined and virgin oils. The packaging used to package the oil causes it to degrade, and consumers should not be misled by the labels. The settlement also requires that the company make the products labeled as “extra virgin” be packaged in dark green bottles. The label should also include the date of harvest.

In addition to paying $7 million, the Deoleo USA company agreed to alter its labeling and packaging.

The company will also change its production procedures and improve its testing protocols. The lawsuit was originally filed in 2010, and seven plaintiffs sued. The settlement is the result of a lengthy trial. The company has now settled the suit for a confidential amount, but it is unlikely to change the labels of the products in the future.

In addition to the seven million dollar settlement, the settlement also included several other changes to the packaging and labeling of Bertolli olive oil. The manufacturer agreed to change its packaging and test procedures. The lawsuit was filed on April 3, 2018, in N.D. Cal., and the case has settled for $7 million. The company will change its packaging and labeling and will no longer use the contested phrase “Imported from Italy.” The new bottle will also be darker green, reduce the “best by” date, and disclose the harvest date.

If you are a victim of a class action, you may be eligible to receive an award in a Bertolli olive oil class action.

This lawsuit can be filed against the company that produces the product. The defendant will have to change the labeling and testing protocols. The manufacturer of Bertolli olive oil will agree to make the changes. The settlement will prevent the company from using the phrase that consumers claimed was misleading.

The lawsuit was filed in N.D. Cal., District of Columbia, and California are investigating a class action lawsuit against Deoleo, the importer and marketer of Bertolli olive oil. The company had claimed that their olive oil was imported from Italy when it was not. The labeling was incorrect as the olives were grown outside of Italy. The plaintiffs claim that the product is contaminated and does not contain extra virgin olive oil.

The class action was filed in Canada in 2014 but was settled last week.

The settlement in Koller v. Med Foods, Inc., was filed in N.D. Cal. on April 3, 2018. The lawsuit claims that Deoleo USA misrepresented its products as imported from Italy, whereas their products were merely imported from Italy. The disputed phrases in the product labels made it impossible for the products to be considered extra virgin.

In response to the claims, Deoleo USA has agreed to settle the class-action lawsuit. The company will pay $7 million and change its labeling and packaging. The lawsuit alleged that Bertolli olive oil is not extra virgin. It is blended with refined oil. It is no longer an extra virgin. Nevertheless, this settlement is a good step toward a better consumer-friendly environment. So, the settlement is a win-win situation for both parties.
