Ag-Mart Produce Inc. has settled a lawsuit with a farmworker couple whose baby was born without limbs after the mother worked in the company’s tomato fields in North Carolina and Florida during her pregnancy, the couple’s lawyer said.
Attorney Andy Yaffa said the two sides reached a confidential agreement Friday night that will take care of his clients’ son Carlos, now 4. The deal must still be approved by a Tampa judge.
Harry Costello, an outside spokesman who represents Ag-Mart, said the company had not decided whether to comment on the agreement. A message left with an attorney for Ag-Mart was not immediately returned Monday after the couple’s attorney disclosed the settlement.”*
