How later courts describe this case

  • holding that FIFRA preempts state common law causes of action
  • holding that product safety law language that says states “shall not impose or continue in effect any requirements for labeling or packaging in addition to or different from [the federal requirements]” preempted common law claims as well as statutory law claims faffing within its ambit
  • stating that FIFRA’s preemptive language is “as inclusive” as that of the Cigarette Act and holding that there is “no difference between the operative effect of the two acts”
  • holding denial of motion to dismiss based upon qualified immunity is an appealable order
