Ron Rothstein Discusses Food and Dietary Supplement Class Action Litigation at FDLI’s Annual Conference

Winston & Strawn Partner Ron Rothstein will speak at FDLI’s Annual Conference May 2-3 in Washington, D.C. The theme of this year’s conference is “Exploring Advanced Topics in Food and Drug Law.”

Ron will speak on the “Food and Dietary Supplement Class Action Litigation: Developments and Strategies” panel. Recently, more courts are holding that class action plaintiffs lack standing to seek injunctive relief where they now understand that the food labels or advertisements over which they are suing are deceptive, and thus are in no danger of being misled in the future. There are also advancements in personal jurisdiction, failure to state a claim under the “reasonable consumer” standard, and settlements. This panel will consider litigation developments and procedural strategies to protect your client in class action suits.

Ron has experience in complex commercial matters, including class action and Lanham Act false advertising, trademark and cybersquatting litigation, and copyright litigation. He has successfully handled numerous class action false advertising, trademark, and domain name cases in federal courts throughout the United States.
