peanutsA U.S. district court judge has ruled the case against a grocery store in the death of an 11-year-old boy will proceed.

The lawsuit could have broad implications for all grocery store bakeries.

According to court records, on May 31, 2014, Derek Landon Wood and his mother were visiting family out of state when they went into a Publix grocery store. Wood, who was diagnosed with severe allergies including tree nuts, asked his mother to buy him a cookie.

His mother, Beth Cline, alleged there were no signs on or near the bakery country to advise of allergens or the potential for allergens in the bakery.
