Typically these suits go after the big names in developed countries, because it's the only place they can hope for accountability. If they were able to sue the plantation owner in Mali, I'm sure they would. But no US court would accept a suit against a foreign company with no US ties, for crimes committed overseas.

Yeah that's what I meant, that the farms would be in a different suit in the domicile country if there's a civil provision to do so.
Sorry, should have been more clear.
