A Merrimack County Superior Court judge on Monday certified what defendants say could be the largest class action lawsuit ever in New Hampshire,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], against cigarette company Philip Morris USA. The suit alleges Philip Morris violated the state’s Consumer Protection Act through unfair and deceptive marketing of Marlboro Lights cigarettes.
“The light-cigarette smokers in New Hampshire who bought Marlboros are at least potentially – it will take many years – but are potentially going to receive compensation for the false statements that they were lower in tar and nicotine, and they were lighter than regular cigarettes, when in fact the tobacco is identical,” said Concord attorney Chuck Douglas, the lead attorney representing the plaintiffs. Philip Morris spokesman Steve Callahan said the company will appeal to the New Hampshire Supreme Court. “We believe granting class certification is contrary to the many decisions and laws governing class actions,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych],” Callahan said.
A U.S. Supreme Court ruling in 2008 cleared the way for class action suits against cigarette companies that manufacture “light” cigarettes to go forward in state courts. Since then, there have been numerous lawsuits filed around the country with mixed results. Class action suits have been certified in Massachusetts,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], Minnesota and Missouri. Judges in eight other states have rejected attempts to certify similar classes. According to Philip Morris’s filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission, there were 29 pending cases regarding the use of the word “light” or “ultra-light,” as of Oct. 25, of which 15 are part of a multi-district case in federal court.
