Ohio Dairy Sues Wisconsin Over Butter Dispute

An Ohio-based dairy has sued the state of Wisconsin over its ban on the sale of ungraded butter.

In the lawsuit filed in U.S. District Court, for the Western District of Wisconsin, Minerva Dairy argues that the ban is an anti-competitive restriction that protects Wisconsin based dairies while blocking sales from other states.

Similar lawsuits have been filed before. Wisconsin Department of Agriculture, Trade and Consumer Protection officials said they had not seen the Minerva lawsuit yet and could not comment on it.
