Congress wanted only state and federal officials to police organic food violations in order to create a national standard for organic foods, a division of the 2nd District Court of Appeal decided in 2013.
The state Supreme Court ruled against this notion, citing the fact that allowing consumer lawsuits would further congressional goals of curtailing fraud and ensuring consumers can rely on organic labels.
There have already been multiple cases of companies claiming their products were ‘all natural’ or ‘organic’ when, in fact, they were not.
