Roundup remains one of the most strategically complex mass torts in the country.

For this MTMP edition of Tort Talk, Jon, Marc, and Joe sit down with Seth Crompton to outline the key pressure points driving this litigation forward.

In this episode, Seth explains:

• How inventory settlements are actually being structured
• What the Solicitor General and Supreme Court activity could realistically impact
• Why design defect claims remain viable regardless of what happens on preemption
• How trial settings influence defense posture and negotiation windows

Roundup has been active for years. But the next phase is about leverage, timing, and aligning the right mechanisms to force movement.

Tune in for a strategic look at where Roundup stands today and how attorneys should be thinking about the path to resolution.
