A Message From the Editor

After two consecutive defense wins in the Philadelphia Roundup litigation, a jury has awarded $78 million to a man who developed non-Hodgkin lymphoma allegedly from his exposure to the weedkiller. Aleeza Furman has more details in our first story. Also, a slew of firms from Pa. and beyond are bringing in sizable fees stemming from the high-profile University of the Arts bankruptcy.

Thanks for reading!
