On Thursday, the plaintiffs in a class-action lawsuit purporting that major companies in the runner peanut industry are participating in anticompetitive activities asked the Eastern District of Virginia to give preliminary approval to a $45 million settlement with one of the defendants, Golden Peanut Company LLC.

The judge filed an Order on Wednesday denying one of the plaintiff’s motions in limine asking for the court to exclude any evidence relating to the plaintiffsâ contact with other peanut farmers during the trial.
