PepsiCo beats NY AG Letitia James’ ‘predatory’ lawsuit 

FOX Business-

PepsiCo beat a lawsuit brought by New York Attorney General Letitia James over the company’s alleged plastics pollution after a judge criticized the case as predatory and dismissed the lawsuit.

James failed to show that the beverage and snack-food company created a public nuisance with its single-use plastic packaging, Justice Emilio Colaiacovo of the state Supreme Court in Buffalo said Thursday.

Colaiacovo, a Republican, ruled that it would run “contrary to every norm of established jurisprudence” to punish PepsiCo because people ignored littering laws, not the company.

“While I can think of no reasonable person who does not believe in the imperatives of recycling and being better stewards of our environment, this does not give rise to phantom assertions of liability that do nothing to solve the problem that exists,” wrote Colaiacovo. more

  1. Hell, go back to the 60’s when those dumb ass tree huggers brought about the plastic revolution. They killed the paper wax coated milk cartons, then the recycled glass bottles and finally the aluminum cans. After all that, they voted in the low IQ folks and then ultimately voted in the blacks to come back and kill off the people and companies that brought them into office. I guess you can call it the Joan Crawford syndrome. Fvck, Pepsi is too sickening sweet to drink anyway

    What bullshit. Even is someone “litters” the people who are paid to pick up the litter can re-cycle it. He came to the proper jurisprudential conclusion while tipping his hat to the enviro-nazis. Simply put, littering does not preclude recycling.

    Good for him (and us) that some sanity exists in some higher courts but the problem is clearly Letitia James and all other “predatory” and corrupt Attorneys General.
