Doe v. Chiquita Brands International
Court	United States District Court for the District of New Jersey
Full case name	John Doe 1, et al. v. Chiquita Brands International, Inc., et al.
Docket nos.	2:07-cv-03406
Court membership
Judge(s) sitting	John Michael Vazquez

The 144 plaintiffs allege that terrorists funded by Chiquita Brands killed 173 individuals of whom the plaintiffs were legal representatives. The killings took place over a lengthy period of time from 1975 to 2004 and most occurred in the 1990s and 2000s.

Chiquita Brands has admitted in federal court that a subsidiary company (which was subsequently sold) paid Colombian terrorists to protect employees at its most profitable banana-growing operation. As part of a deal with prosecutors, the company pleaded guilty to one count of doing business with a terrorist organization. In exchange, the company will pay a $25-million fine and court documents will not reveal the identities of the group of senior executives who approved the illegal protection payments.^{[citation needed]}
