A federal judge has denied a motion for class certification in a long-running suit claiming Tropicana orange juice is deceptively marketed with phrases such as “natural,” “100% pure” and “grove to glass.”

Plaintiffs lawyers sought certification of classes of consumers who had bought Tropicana orange juice at Costco warehouse clubs in California and New York. That proposal was aimed at correcting deficiencies identified by the court in an earlier opinion denying class certification.
