*Texas Supreme Court grants petition for review in\u00a0Garcia v. Pruski<\/em>.\u00a0\u00a0<\/strong>As you may recall from this prior post<\/a>, the San Antonio Court of Appeals issued a ruling in a fence law case involving a bull out on a State Highway in Wilson County, which has a local stock law.\u00a0 The appellate court found that both the “knowingly permit” standard applicable to state and US highways and the “permit” standard applicable in Wilson County pursuant to the local stock law applied in this case.\u00a0 In applying those standards, the court dismissed the plaintiff’s claim that the bull owner “knowingly permitted” the bull to run at large, but found there sufficient evidence to allow the case to go forward on the question of whether the owner “permitted” the bull to run at large.\u00a0 This case has the potential to have a major impact on Texas fence law and liability for livestock owners and is one we will absolutely keep an eye on for you.<\/p>\n

*Mississippi sued over meat labeling law.<\/strong>\u00a0 A vegan food company and the Plant Based Foods Association has filed suit against Mississippi challenging a new state law that prohibits using the term “meat” to describe plant-based food products.\u00a0 The lawsuit claims the Mississippi law violates the plaintiffs’ freedom of speech.\u00a0 Several other states have passed similar laws.
