ADVERTISEMENTS
"Ore. court rejects medical costs claim on tobacco industry": The Associated Press provides a report that begins, "The same Oregon court that slapped Big Tobacco with a huge punitive damages award has handed the industry a victory by rejecting a class-action lawsuit for medical monitoring costs in a case where harm had yet to occur.

You can access today's ruling of the Supreme Court of Oregon at this link.
