NY AG Letitia James Files Suit Against Largest Meat Producer for ‘Misleading Public’ Over Climate Impact

AG Letitia James has discovered the Commercial Division of the New York Courts and she is just getting started. This is the same division that gave the works to Trump. No trial, but rather one crazy judge out to destroy and ordered Trump to come up with $454 Million Plus.

Reuters reported:

JBS the world’s largest beef producer, was sued on Wednesday by New York state’s attorney general, which accused it of misleading the public about its impact on the environment in order to boost sales.

Attorney General Letitia James said JBS USA Food Co, the Brazilian company’s American-based unit, has “no viable plan” to reach net zero greenhouse gas emissions by 2040, making its stated commitment to achieving that goal false and misleading.

James said JBS has admitted its “Net Zero by 2040” commitment did not incorporate the vast majority of greenhouse gas emissions from its supply chain, including from deforestation in the Amazon.

She also said reaching the goal was “infeasible” given JBS’ plan to increase production and therefore its carbon footprint, on top of greenhouse gas emissions that had by 2021 exceeded those of the entire country of Ireland.

AG James:

“The lawsuit filed in a New York state court in Manhattan seeks a $5,000 civil fine per violation of state business laws, and to recoup ill-gotten gains from false sustainability claims.” – Reuters reported.

“I’m suing @JBSFoodsUSA, the world’s largest beef producer, for misleading the public about its environmental impact,” Letitia James said on X. “The beef industry is one of the largest contributors to climate change, and JBS has falsely advertised its commitment to sustainability and endangered our planet.”

We had a complete reveal of the quality of the judges with Judge Arthur Engoron who meted out the justice for Trump in the same Commercial Division that does not permit jury trials.

A New York appellate judge rejected an emergency request yesterday from Donald Trump to post a $100 million bond while appealing what he called an “exorbitant and punitive” $454 million fraud judgment against him.

State Attorney General Letitia James opposed Trump’s request and asked for the former president to have to post the entire judgment, to ensure the state would be paid if he loses his appeal.

Judge Anil Singh of the state court’s Appellate Division ruled Trump has to post a bond for the entire judgment and that his three-year prohibition against running a corporation in New York would remain in force. However, he did allow Trump’s two adult sons to run the Trump Organization while the appeal is considered, despite the trial imposing a similar prohibition on Eric Trump and Donald Trump, Jr. The business prohibition also bars him from getting loans from financial institutions chartered or registered in the state.

Who is Justice Singh?

Justice Singh is foreign born, and hailing from India. Justice Singh is a 1986 graduate of Antioch School of Law in Washington, D.C. The year Antioch School of Law closed up shop as it was known. The Law School was known for its radicalism.

Established in 1972, with an open-admissions policy, the Antioch School of Law offered mostly low-income Black students an opportunity to obtain a quality post-secondary education, while advocating on behalf of their communities. Source

On Tuesday, April 7, 2015, Justice Anil C. Singh of the New York Supreme Court was appointed to the New York County Commercial Division.  According to his judicial biography, Justice Singh is a 1986 graduate of Antioch School of Law in Washington, D.C.

Between Judge Singh and Judge Arthur Engoron and Letticia James, any business better get out of Dodge, or as Mr. Wonderful so aptly said below in the clip. This before the latest beef from AG James.
