Wayne Miner and James Easley, Individually, and on behalf of all others similarly situated v. Philip Morris Companies, Inc.
Case No. CV 2003-4661.
Circuit Court for Pulaski County, Arkansas

Case Summary

The lawsuit resolves claims that Philip Morris advertised, marketed and sold Marlboro Lights and Marlboro Ultra Lights cigarettes as healthier than regular cigarettes in a way that deceived consumers who purchased Marlboro Lights and Marlboro Ultra Lights in Arkansas. Plaintiffs allege that,during the period in question Philip Morris marketed and sold their cigarettes a as “Lights,” “Ultra Lights,” “lower tar and nicotine,” “low tar and nicotine.” According to the plaintiffs the Defendant falsely represented that Marlboro Lights and Marlboro Ultra Lights being less harmful and delivering lower tar and nicotine in comparison to regular Marlboro cigarettes. Contrary to these claims the cigarettes marketed as Lights do not deliver lower tar and nicotine than regular Marlboro cigarettes when actually smoked. This case does not address actual damages suffered as a result of that person’s addiction, personal injury or any health-related illness resulting from that person smoking Marlboro Lights or Ultra Lights cigarettes.

The manufacturer denies the claims and allegations in the lawsuit but has agreed to settle the case to avoid further substantial expense and the inconvenience and distraction of protracted and burdensome litigation.
