MONTREAL, CANADA -- (Marketwired) -- 11/08/14 -- Affinor Growers (CSE: AFI)(FRANKFURT: 1AF)(OTCQB: RSSFF) ("Affinor" or the "Corporation) wishes to advise its shareholders that the U.S. Federal Court in Washington State has dismissed the case filed by Abbattis Bioceuticals Corp. against prior employees of PhytaLab and Affinor Growers.
