Intentional Tort Claim Against Employer
A US District Court in NJ is allowing
a claim of injured agricultural
worker to proceed against an employer

flowing from a pesticide spraying.
The workers, residents of Puerto Rico,
were employed on a NJ farm harvesting
produce. hey were employed to work in
fields that the employer recently
applied pesticides or was actually
spraying the pesticides. Is was alleged
that the employer failed to provide medical
assistance after the workers became ill
and did not provide the employee's
physicians with complete with complete
information on the [potential pesticide
exposure that would have allowed better
treatment.
The Court denied the defendant's motion
for summary judgement and is
allowing the case to be heard.
