Roundup Lawsuit Tennessee

Written by Fob James IV, Esq. | Fob James Law Firm, LLC | Last Updated: June 11, 2026

The Tennessee Roundup lawsuit is about the chemicals in the popular weedkiller causing cancer. If you were exposed to Roundup and diagnosed with non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma or leukemia, the Nashville, Tennessee Roundup lawyers at Fob James Law Firm want to help you get justice.

Monsanto’s Roundup is among the most commonly used herbicides in the world. Many countries have banned the active ingredient, glyphosate, because it is a known carcinogen that causes non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma and other cancers.

The crux of the Roundup lawsuit is that companies like Monsanto manufactured and profited from selling Roundup for decades despite knowing the risks associated with glyphosate. To top it off, Monsanto failed to warn consumers and downplayed the danger of Roundup exposure.

If you are suffering from cancer caused by Roundup, do not delay. Time is running out to file a Roundup claim.

Common Questions About the Tennessee Roundup Lawsuit (FAQ)

What Is Roundup?

Roundup is the brand name of a common herbicide used to kill weeds that compete with agricultural crops. Roundup is made by the Monsanto Company, which was acquired by Bayer in 2018.

The active ingredient of Roundup is the isopropylamine salt of glyphosate — the most widely used herbicide in the United States. Roughly 185 million pounds of Roundup are used annually, and it remains the most widely used herbicide in the United States and worldwide.

Roundup is marketed to consumers by Scotts Miracle-Gro Company. Other commercial brand names of glyphosate-based products include Ortho GroundClear, RM43 Total Vegetation Control, Compare-N-Save Concentrate Grass and Weed Killer, Dow Rodeo Herbicide, and Ranger Pro Herbicide.

If you have been exposed to Roundup, contact the Monsanto attorneys at Fob James Law Firm today for a free consultation.

How Do I Become Exposed to Roundup?

Roundup exposure is common because of how many people use the weed killer. Commercial farmers use Roundup in their fields, consumers use it regularly to kill weeds in their flowerbeds, and landscapers and golf courses depend on it to create pristine environments.

As a result, those who work as landscapers, on golf courses, or on commercial farms are likely most at-risk. Exposure to Roundup often occurs in the following ways:

• Getting it on your skin while spraying
• Getting it on your skin from touching wet crops
• Breathing it in while spraying
• Swallowing accidentally while spraying
• Eating, drinking, or smoking after applying while wet product is on your hands

What Is Non-Hodgkin’s Lymphoma?

Non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma (NHL) is a cancer affecting the immune system. It occurs when the body produces excessive abnormal lymphocytes, which is a form of white blood cell. Eventually, lymph nodes become crowded by these cancerous lymphocytes and begin to swell.

Roundup may also cause other lymphatic cancers such as mantle cell lymphoma, diffuse large B-cell lymphoma, primary mediastinal B-cell lymphoma, follicular lymphoma, small lymphocytic lymphoma, Burkitt lymphoma, lymphoplasmacytic lymphoma, Waldenstrom macroglobulinemia, hairy cell lymphoma, and T-cell lymphoma.

If you are unsure your cancer is caused by Roundup, do not assume it is unrelated. An experienced Tennessee Roundup lawyer at Fob James Law Firm can evaluate your situation at no charge.

How Does Roundup Cause Non-Hodgkin’s Lymphoma?

Roundup is made with glyphosate, the most-used agricultural chemical ever. Some 300 million pounds of glyphosate are used on crops worldwide each year.

Glyphosate works by inhibiting a specific enzyme required for plant growth. Glyphosate has been shown to be carcinogenic, and thus cause cancer. Evidence suggests that glyphosate exposure is linked to chromosomal and DNA damage in human cells, as well as non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma and other types of hematopoietic (blood cell-related) cancers. More than 25 countries and some jurisdictions in the U.S. have banned or restricted the use of glyphosate.

What Are the Signs of Non-Hodgkin’s Lymphoma?

According to the Mayo Clinic, signs of non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma include:

• Swollen lymph nodes in your neck, armpits, or groin
• Abdominal pain or swelling
• Chest pain, coughing, or trouble breathing
• Persistent fatigue
• Fever
• Night sweats
• Unexplained weight loss

Who Is Being Sued in the Roundup Lawsuit?

Bayer, which acquired Monsanto in 2018, produces and markets Roundup and has assumed Monsanto’s liabilities. Bayer/Monsanto has faced more than 100,000 Roundup cancer claims.

Bayer has resolved roughly 100,000 of those claims through settlements totaling approximately $11 billion, but tens of thousands of cases remain pending in federal and state courts, and victims continue to file new lawsuits as of 2026.

Contact a top-rated Tennessee Roundup lawyer to discuss your claim and which companies you can sue.

Who Qualifies for the Roundup Lawsuit in Tennessee?

A Tennessee resident who was exposed to Roundup and diagnosed with non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma or another lymphatic cancer may be eligible to take legal action against the manufacturer of Roundup.

Below are groups of individuals commonly exposed to Roundup:

• Farmers and their employees
• Crop dusters
• Golf course applicators
• Landscapers and their employees
• Gardeners

If you meet these criteria, you may have a case and should contact the Tennessee Roundup lawyers at Fob James Law Firm.

What Can I Recover From a Tennessee Roundup Lawsuit?

Every case is unique, but people who file lawsuits can potentially recover money for some of the following damages:

• Past and future medical bills (including medication, hospital stays, and in-home care)
• Pain and suffering, including mental anguish
• Psychological damage
• Lost wages
• Loss of earning capacity
• Funeral expenses (in the event of a loved one’s death)
• The loss of enjoyment of life
• Broadly speaking, any past and future costs associated with a non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma diagnosis

How Long Do I Have to File a Roundup Lawsuit in Tennessee?

Every state is different, so make sure you consult with an attorney before assuming how long you have to file a lawsuit. Tennessee has one of the shortest deadlines in the country.

In Tennessee, you generally have just one year from the date you discovered (or reasonably should have discovered) your Roundup-related injury to file a lawsuit, under Tenn. Code Ann. § 28-3-104. Tennessee applies this one-year personal-injury deadline to product liability claims through the Tennessee Products Liability Act (Tenn. Code Ann. § 29-28-103), which also imposes outer limits — generally six years from the date of injury and ten years from the product’s first sale.

Because Tennessee’s one-year window is so short, do not wait. Even a few months’ delay could permanently bar your claim. Contact our Tennessee Roundup lawyers to review your specific situation.

What Are the Attorney Fees for the Tennessee Roundup Lawsuit?

Fob James Law Firm operates on a contingency-fee basis. This means we only get paid a percentage of the recovery if we successfully resolve your case. Our fees come out of a favorable settlement or jury award, not out of your pocket. Importantly, if we do not obtain a recovery, then you owe us nothing.

Fob James Law Firm charges Roundup lawsuit clients a 33.33% to 40% contingency fee.

When Will the Roundup Lawsuits Be Settled?

Bayer has already settled roughly 100,000 Roundup lawsuits, paying out approximately $11 billion — but tens of thousands of claims remain pending nationwide, and new cases continue to be filed. The timing of any broader resolution now hinges heavily on the U.S. Supreme Court.

In Monsanto Company v. Durnell, argued on April 27, 2026, the Court will decide whether federal law preempts state failure-to-warn claims. A decision is expected by the end of June 2026. If Bayer loses, it will face continued exposure to large jury verdicts and stronger pressure to fund a global settlement. If Bayer wins, the company may try to use the ruling to limit or dismiss many pending claims. Either way, Tennessee residents with non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma should have their claims evaluated now, because the one-year filing deadline continues to run regardless of the Supreme Court’s decision.

What Is the Average Roundup Settlement in Tennessee?

There is no single “average” Roundup settlement, because payouts vary widely based on the strength of each case. Broadly, Roundup resolutions have fallen into two categories:

• Settlements: Through Bayer’s settlement program, individual payouts have generally ranged from the low tens of thousands of dollars up to several hundred thousand dollars, depending on exposure history, diagnosis, severity, and age.
• Jury verdicts: Cases that go to trial and win have produced dramatically larger awards — including verdicts of $78 million, $175 million, $611 million, and even a $2.1 billion verdict in Georgia (later reduced) — because juries have repeatedly found that Monsanto failed to warn consumers.

The value of any individual Tennessee case depends on the level and duration of Roundup exposure, the type and stage of cancer, the cost of treatment, lost income, and whether punitive damages are available. Our attorneys provide a free, no-obligation evaluation of your specific claim.

The Risk of Cancer Is Real

More than 25 countries and some jurisdictions in the U.S. have banned or restricted the use of Roundup’s active ingredient glyphosate due to its carcinogenic effects.

Glyphosate is on California’s list of cancer-causing agents, while the World Health Organization’s International Agency for Research on Cancer dubbed it a “probable human carcinogen.”

In addition, a review by the University of Washington found that agricultural professionals highly exposed to glyphosate had a 41% higher risk of contracting non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma than those with low or no exposure.

Roundup Litigation Updates

Last Updated: June 11, 2026

Updates on the Roundup lawsuit will be posted in our blog throughout the litigation. If you have any immediate questions or concerns, call us 24/7 to speak with one of our Roundup attorneys in Tennessee.

June 2026 – Supreme Court Decision Expected Any Day in Monsanto v. Durnell

The U.S. Supreme Court is expected to issue its decision in Monsanto Company v. Durnell before its term ends in late June 2026. The ruling will resolve whether the Federal Insecticide, Fungicide, and Rodenticide Act (FIFRA) preempts state failure-to-warn claims where the EPA never mandated a cancer warning — the central legal question running through nearly every Roundup case. A ruling for Bayer could limit or bar many state failure-to-warn claims; a ruling for the plaintiff would clear the way for the litigation to continue and intensify pressure on Bayer to reach a global settlement. We will update this page as soon as the decision is released.

April 27, 2026 – U.S. Supreme Court Hears Oral Argument

The Supreme Court heard roughly 75 minutes of oral argument in Monsanto Company v. Durnell. The justices wrestled with FIFRA’s text and the EPA’s authority over Roundup labels, and the questioning crossed ideological lines — Chief Justice Roberts and Justice Gorsuch joined Justice Jackson in pressing Bayer’s position. The U.S. Solicitor General had filed a brief supporting Monsanto. The underlying case arose from a $1.25 million Missouri verdict to John Durnell, a gardener who developed non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma after years of Roundup use. A decision is expected by the end of June 2026.

January 16, 2026 – U.S. Supreme Court Agrees to Review Bayer’s Appeal

The U.S. Supreme Court agreed to review Bayer’s effort to limit Roundup cancer lawsuits, taking up the question of whether federal pesticide law should preempt state failure-to-warn claims. The case centers on whether people diagnosed with non-Hodgkin lymphoma after Roundup exposure can continue pursuing compensation for injuries linked to glyphosate-based herbicides. Granting review was a procedural win for Bayer, but the outcome remains undecided — and current Roundup claims remain active as courts continue to evaluate Bayer’s duty to warn consumers.

November 19, 2025 – Bayer Withdraws Multiple Appeals

Bayer has withdrawn multiple appeals across the country. Most notably, Bayer withdrew its appeal in the $2.065 billion verdict in Georgia. It also withdrew three appeals of rulings that came out of the Philadelphia Court of Common Pleas. Is this a sign that Bayer will try to settle pending cases that are set for trial? We will find out in the fullness of time.

November 10, 2025 – Monsanto $185 Million Verdict Reinstated

A unanimous decision by the Washington Supreme Court reinstated a $185 million verdict against Monsanto Company (a unit of Bayer AG) in a case involving chemical contamination at a Washington state school. In a 2021 trial, three teachers at Sky Valley Education Center in Monroe, Washington, claimed that exposure to PCBs leaking from old light fixtures caused cancer and other health issues. The Washington Supreme Court ruled that Missouri law governs the case because Monsanto made most of its PCB decisions in Missouri, and reinstated the verdict.

October 7, 2025 – Missouri Supreme Court Declines Review of $611M Verdict

The Missouri Supreme Court refused to take up Bayer’s appeal of a jury verdict that awarded approximately $611 million in compensatory damages plus punitive damages (later reduced) to three plaintiffs, effectively affirming the lower appellate court’s decision.

October 2, 2025 – Expert Exclusion Ruling in MDL

A recent MDL order tightened the standard for expert testimony — requiring Rule 26 reports to stand on their own rather than relying on deposition testimony to fill gaps. Some experts were excluded for insufficient methodology, while others survived.

October 1, 2025 – Investor-Shareholder Settlement Cleared for Final Approval

Bayer is seeking final court approval of a $38 million settlement resolving claims that it misled shareholders about Roundup-related liability disclosures.

September 8, 2025 – Status of the Roundup Litigation

The Roundup cancer lawsuits remain active in both federal and state courts. Plaintiffs allege that exposure to glyphosate, the main ingredient in Roundup, caused non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma, and that Bayer/Monsanto failed to warn users of the risks. While Bayer has already paid billions in earlier settlements, thousands of cases are still pending. Individuals diagnosed with non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma after using Roundup may still qualify to file a lawsuit.

August 4, 2025 – Bayer Adds One Billion Dollars to Litigation Reserve

Reports are that Bayer added one billion dollars to its litigation reserve. On one hand, it could mean Bayer is planning on resolving Roundup lawsuits. On the other hand, Bayer may simply be replenishing reserves to continue litigating and paying bellwether verdicts. Only time will tell.

August 3, 2025 – Senator Booker Introduces Pesticide Injury Accountability Act

Senator Cory Booker (D-N.J.) introduced legislation to hold pesticide and herbicide manufacturers responsible for the harm caused by toxic products. The bill would amend the Federal Insecticide, Fungicide and Rodenticide Act of 1972 (FIFRA) to create a federal right of action for anyone harmed by a toxic pesticide. The significance is that it would allow victims to circumvent restrictive state laws by filing in federal court under federal law.

July 1, 2025 – Settlement Reached During Roundup Bellwether Trial

The latest bellwether case in St. Louis County Circuit Court, Grantges v. Monsanto, settled near the end of trial — right before closing argument. This suggests that Monsanto was worried about potentially getting hit with another massive jury verdict. The terms of the settlement are not public.

June 9, 2025 – Missouri Appellate Court Upholds $611 Million Roundup Verdict

A Missouri appellate court upheld a $611 million verdict against Bayer/Monsanto in the Roundup litigation. As the losses for Bayer accumulate, the pressure to settle or seek another resolution grows.

June 1, 2025 – New Roundup Trial Kicks Off in St. Louis, MO

A new Roundup trial began in St. Louis, Missouri. So far Bayer/Monsanto has won a few trials in St. Louis but has also been hit with a huge verdict. Allowing this case to go to trial is a gamble — Bayer needs a win after taking a $2.1 billion verdict in Georgia.

May 15, 2025 – Bayer Exploring Bankruptcy to Escape Roundup Liability

Bayer hired the law firm Latham & Watkins to explore filing Chapter 11 bankruptcy to mitigate liability from Roundup lawsuits. By filing bankruptcy, Bayer could pause the ongoing Roundup litigation and seek a resolution through the bankruptcy court.

May 8, 2025 – Pennsylvania Superior Court Affirms $175 Million Verdict

Back in October 2023, a jury in Philadelphia awarded $175 million to Ernest Caranci, who claimed Roundup caused his non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma. Bayer appealed, and the Superior Court affirmed the $175 million verdict, meaning Bayer must pay the verdict amount plus interest.

April 7, 2025 – Bayer Petitions U.S. Supreme Court a Third Time

Bayer announced it was petitioning the U.S. Supreme Court a third time in an effort to limit liability for its Roundup product. Bayer argues claimants should not be able to sue under state law for failure to warn that Roundup increases cancer risk because the EPA has found no such risk and requires no such warning. (The Court ultimately granted review in January 2026 in the Durnell case.)

April 1, 2025 – Tennessee Legislature Considers “Herbicide” Bill (HB 809)

Members of the Tennessee House Judiciary Committee considered House Bill 809, which would give immunity from civil lawsuits to herbicide manufacturers, including Bayer/Monsanto. For now, the Committee postponed the proposed legislation until a later session, pending further study, after hearing testimony from families affected by cancer linked to Roundup. The bill is sponsored by Sen. John Stevens (R-Huntington) and Rep. Rusty Grills (R-Newbern). Under the bill, pesticide and herbicide companies would be shielded from negligence and failure-to-warn claims if their product label was approved by the EPA — which would make Roundup lawsuits far harder to bring in Tennessee. The good news for Tennessee victims is that, unlike Georgia, Tennessee has not enacted such a law, so Roundup claims can still be pursued.

March 24, 2025 – Georgia Jury Awards $2.1 Billion Verdict in Roundup Trial

A Georgia jury awarded nearly $2.1 billion to a man diagnosed with non-Hodgkin lymphoma after exposure to Roundup — $65 million in compensatory damages and $2 billion in punitive damages. Because the jury awarded punitive damages, it believed Monsanto’s failure to warn rose to the level of gross negligence. (The award was later reduced, and Bayer ultimately withdrew its appeal.)

March 4, 2025 – Missouri Lawyer Demands “Public Relations” Documents from Bayer

In the ongoing Roundup litigation in Missouri, Bayer refused to produce 46 documents on the grounds that they contain proprietary information. A Missouri plaintiff’s attorney filed an emergency motion seeking a court order compelling Bayer to produce the documents, which the attorney says contain information about Bayer spreading propaganda in the media to influence the outcome of the litigation.

February 9, 2025 – Study Suggests Glyphosate Reduces Gestational Birth Weight

A new study released by the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences suggests that glyphosate has significantly reduced the average birthweight and gestational length among babies in disadvantaged groups. Researchers note that during the 20 years after the introduction of genetically modified seeds, glyphosate levels increased by 750%.

February 2, 2025 – Monsanto Continues Settling Roundup Cases With Various Firms

Our Roundup lawyers heard rumors that Bayer was starting to settle law firms’ Roundup “inventories.” These rumors have now been confirmed. We expect Roundup lawsuit settlements to continue. Typically, the defendant prefers to settle with law firms that have large case inventories with strong cases.

January 14, 2025 – Washington State Jury Hits Bayer with $100 Million Verdict

A jury in Washington returned a verdict of $100 million in favor of four plaintiffs who suffered illnesses after exposure to PCBs from light fixtures at a Seattle-area school. While not directly a Roundup case, it reflects that juries are willing to award large verdicts in toxic-exposure cases against Monsanto/Bayer.

January 12, 2025 – Last Roundup Lawsuit in Australia Is Discontinued

The Federal Court of Australia ended the last pending Roundup lawsuit in the country. In a 322-page ruling, the Australian court concluded that the scientific evidence did not support the link between glyphosate and NHL. Fortunately, the ruling in Australia bears no legal significance to the Roundup litigation ongoing in the United States.

January 1, 2025 – Will the Roundup Lawsuits Settle in 2025?

Mass tort litigation is unpredictable and often drags on longer than even experienced attorneys predict. That said, Bayer/Monsanto continued settling more cases in 2025 and into 2026, and Bayer executives have used language suggesting that resolving the Roundup litigation is a short-term goal.

December 9, 2024 – Mistrial Declared in Chicago Roundup Trial

A Cook County Circuit Court judge declared a mistrial after Monsanto’s counsel improperly introduced evidence on cross-examination that the plaintiff had a prior alcohol-related criminal charge — a topic the court had ruled inadmissible. The plaintiff will now have to go through the costly process of retrying the case.

December 2, 2024 – Will the U.S. Restrict Glyphosate?

Roundup contains glyphosate, which many countries (such as France) have restricted for household use. With renewed federal attention on pesticide safety, there is a real possibility the U.S. takes action similar to European countries — though the agriculture industry and a well-funded lobby continue to oppose any restrictions.

November 16, 2024 – Monsanto Wins Its Third Roundup Trial in Philadelphia

In the 7th Roundup trial, a Philadelphia jury returned a verdict in favor of Monsanto. The plaintiff had limited exposure to Roundup between 2015 and 2019, making it an uphill case. Plaintiffs are not going to win every trial; the key is winning the stronger cases.

November 3, 2024 – Massachusetts Court Tosses Failure-to-Warn Claim

A judge in Massachusetts ruled that a plaintiff’s failure-to-warn claim against Monsanto is preempted by federal law, tracking the 3rd Circuit’s opinion in Schaffner v. Monsanto. Going forward, that plaintiff’s lawsuit is limited to a design-defect claim. This preemption issue is the same one now before the U.S. Supreme Court.

October 10, 2024 – Jury in Philadelphia Awards $78 Million

A Philadelphia jury awarded $78 million to a man who developed cancer after exposure to Roundup, finding for the plaintiff on both the failure-to-warn and design-defect claims.

October 1, 2024 – 6th Roundup Trial Underway in Philadelphia

The 6th Roundup trial, Melissen v. Monsanto, went into its third week after Monsanto won the prior two trials in Philadelphia.

September 12, 2024 – Bayer Wins 2nd Roundup Trial in Philadelphia

A Philadelphia jury ruled that Bayer/Monsanto was not liable for the plaintiff’s cancer — Bayer’s 2nd defense verdict in a row, making the Philadelphia scorecard 3 plaintiff verdicts and 2 defense verdicts.

September 2, 2024 – Monsanto Files Motion to Exclude Plaintiffs’ Experts

In the MDL litigation, Monsanto filed a “Daubert” motion to exclude the testimony of seven plaintiffs’ experts. The battle over expert causation testimony is a major issue, and we monitored the court’s ruling closely.

August 20, 2024 – 5th Trial Begins in Philadelphia

The 5th Roundup trial in Philadelphia got underway. Plaintiffs had won three prior Philadelphia trials, resulting in billion-dollar verdicts.

August 1, 2024 – Australian Judge Dismisses Roundup Lawsuit

An Australian judge dismissed a class action lawsuit claiming Bayer’s Roundup causes blood cancer, finding insufficient evidence that glyphosate caused lymphoma. Because the suit was filed in Australia, it does not impact the U.S. litigation.

July 1, 2024 – Bayer Lobbying for Laws Limiting Liability

Bayer is lobbying lawmakers in various states to pass laws protecting pesticide companies from failure-to-warn claims. Taking away failure-to-warn claims under state law would greatly minimize Bayer’s liability — the same strategy behind the herbicide-immunity bills introduced in Tennessee and other states.

June 12, 2024 – Court Lowers Jury Verdict to $400 Million

The Court lowered the previously reported $2.25 billion Philadelphia verdict to $400 million. While a reduction, $400 million is still a massive verdict and a big loss for Bayer/Monsanto.

June 2, 2024 – Bayer’s Settlement Fund

Bayer/Monsanto set aside $16 billion to settle Roundup claims. Having settled roughly 100,000 claims for about $10 billion at that point, the remaining claims suggested Bayer would need additional funds to resolve the litigation.

May 13, 2024 – Tennessee Farmer Files Roundup Lawsuit

A farmer and resident of Tennessee filed a lawsuit against Bayer, the parent company of Monsanto, alleging the chemicals in Roundup caused his non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma. The case was filed in the MDL court overseeing the Roundup litigation; if not resolved through the MDL, it will transfer back to federal court in Tennessee.

April 24, 2024 – Court Reduces $1.56 Billion Jury Verdict

A Missouri jury had awarded $1.56 billion to three plaintiffs injured by Roundup; the judge reduced the verdict to $611 million. Even reduced, the $611 million award is massive and a victory for the plaintiffs.

April 2, 2024 – Court of Appeals Rules Against Bayer

The U.S. Court of Appeals for the Eleventh Circuit rejected Bayer’s argument that federal insecticide law shields the company from liability. Bayer had been attempting to dismiss a plaintiff’s lawsuit based on that preemption argument — the same issue now before the U.S. Supreme Court.

March 5, 2024 – Bayer/Monsanto Gets Defense Verdict in Pennsylvania

A Pennsylvania jury denied a retired postal worker’s claim that his Roundup exposure caused his NHL. Defense verdicts like this happen in bellwether trials as Bayer tries weaker cases; despite them, the average bellwether result is still hundreds of millions of dollars.

February 1, 2024 – Another Roundup Lawsuit Victory for Plaintiffs

A Philadelphia jury awarded $2.25 billion to a man diagnosed with non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma (later reduced on appeal) — the second jury verdict in a row over a billion dollars, putting immense pressure on Bayer to resolve remaining cases.
