About this case

A resident filed a class-action lawsuit in 2022 on behalf of the local community, alleging that odors from JBS's Louisville, Kentucky, slaughterhouse harmed nearby residents. The proposed settlement would require JBS to spend $430,000 on odor-reduction upgrades and pay $500,000 into a fund for residents living within one mile of the plant; the current procedural stage is not specified.
