(22 Mar 2003) Richmond, Virginia - File 1. Richmond headquarters 2. Various of tobacco cigarette production at Phillip Morris 3. Phillip Morris website 4. Cigarette manufacturer New York, NY - File 5. Exterior of New York headquarters 5. Smoker STORYLINE: A judge Friday ordered cigarette maker Philip Morris USA to pay 10.1 (b) billion US dollars for misleading smokers into believing its light cigarettes are less harmful than regular labels. Lawyers for the plaintiffs said the ruling would pave the way for similar cases, but Philip Morris, now an operating unit of Altria Group Inc., said it would appeal Judge Nicholas Byron's decision. Byron's ruling calls for the cigarette maker to pay 7.1 (b) billion US dollars in compensatory damages, as well as 3 (b) billion US dollars in punitive damages to the state of Illinois. The lawsuit was filed on behalf of one million Illinois smokers who smoked those two brands. It was the first class-action lawsuit in the nation to come to trial alleging a tobacco company committed consumer fraud in its advertising of light cigarettes. Unlike many other high-profile cigarette-related lawsuits, the plaintiffs didn't claim that smoking made them sick. They accused Philip Morris of wrongly leading customers to believe the «light» brands are less harmful than regular cigarettes. They based their claims on evidence they said showed the tobacco maker concealed crucial research data revealing the detrimental effects of light cigarettes for more than 30 years. Philip Morris had maintained that the light brands show less of the toxins when tested, although individual smokers tend to get more or less toxins depending on how they inhale. The company says it used the word «light» to refer to taste, not content.
