: Bodily Injury BlogJudge prohibits evident from smoker class action
By Edward Bills
Thousands of individual smokers who have filed lawsuits against Altria Group Inc. and other tobacco companies may not rely on factual findings used in a Florida class-action against cigarette makers, a federal judge has ruled.
The ruling by District Judge Harvey Schlesinger runs contrary to a Florida Supreme Court decision allowing factual evidence from the state?s massive ?Engle? class action to be used in individual suits.
The case is Brown v. R.J. Reynolds Tobacco Co., 07-CV-761, U.S. District Court, Middle District of Florida (Jacksonville).
