BELLEVILLE – St. Clair County Associate Judge Kevin Hoerner entered nine straight orders in favor of paraquat plaintiffs in preparation for a trial he would have started Monday, May 10.

They seek damages from Syngenta Crop Protection and Growmark cooperative as suppliers, and Chevron USA as manufacturer.
