Appeal Against Cigarette Companies

Thursday, July 7th, 2018

Jerry Weingart has been waiting more than a decade for the companies he believes killed his wife to be brought to justice. But at 89, the Boynton Beach man doesn’t have the stamina to spend the whole day in court. Holding a cane, he listened on Wednesday morning while one of his attorneys explained to a jury why three Pall Mall cigarette makers should be held responsible for his wife’s death. But Weingart headed home before tobacco attorneys launched their full counterattack

Like in the two other tobacco trials that have been held in Palm Beach County, millions of dollars are at stake.

The cases are among roughly 8,000 that were spawned statewide when the Florida Supreme Court in 2006 threw out a $145 billion jury verdict in a class-action lawsuit. While upholding the jury’s findings that cigarette-makers lied about the dangers of smoking, the high court ruled that each smoker had to prove how they were uniquely harmed by cigarettes.

Weingart’s attorneys said they are seeking damages for the years smoking took off Claire Weingart’s life. Instead of spending their “golden years” together, Jerry Weingart became widower in 1997 when his wife of 54 years died at age 73, attorney Hardee Bass told jurors.

A heavy smoker for roughly 50 years, she didn’t stop smoking even when lung cancer spread to her brain, Bass said. She began smoking in the 1940s when no one suspected smoking posed any health risks. She was powerless to stop because cigarette-makers R.J. Reynolds, Philip Morris and Lorillard — the companies that produced her brands of choice — turned her into an addict, he said.

“This case is about a promise the cigarette industry made to a generation of people — the World War II generation,” Bass said during opening arguments. “It’s about the lies they told a generation of smokers. It’s about the truth they hid from a generation of smokers.”

Using company documents, he showed how the companies orchestrated a misinformation campaign to counter growing evidence that smoking kills.

“Claire Weingart was an industry success story,” he said.

Tobacco industry attorneys countered that there is no evidence Weingart was influenced by the documents. Attorney Kenneth Reilly acknowledged that tobacco chiefs made some “wrong-headed” decisions. But, he said, there is no evidence Weingart knew about the statements or used them to justify her decision to keep smoking. Like millions of other smokers, she could have quit.

Are Tobacco Businesses Breaking The Law?

Wednesday, June 15th, 2018

New questions about whether a mid-Michigan tobacco business is breaking the law. The state sent about 300 notices to businesses around the state telling them that Pall Mall cigarette rolling machines are illegal. But a Lansing store owner says he’s doing nothing wrong. The RYO machine is capable of creating a carton’s worth of cigarettes within 10 minutes.

Patrick Brazil, That’s How We Roll owner: “We rent the machines to costumers, show them how to use them and guide them through the process.”

Brazil owns That’s How We Roll, which has two of the high-speed cigarette rollers. The business opened about a month ago, but the State Treasury Department believes the machines violate the Michigan tobacco products tax act.

Terry Stanton, MI Dept. of Treasury spokesperson: “If they’re utilizing one of these machines, they could be considered a manufacturer and therefore have to register as a manufacturer, and ensure that all the paperwork and what not is taken care of.”

But Brazil has not registered and doesn’t think he has to, because he and his workers don’t make the smokes, customers do.

Patrick Brazil: “On the receipt, it even says ‘machine rental.'”

Brazil says State Treasury workers recently visited his store, but didn’t take away his machines, and until they do, he not only plans to stay in business, he’s also opening another store.

Patrick Brazil: “We are 100 percent legal and we’d like to make sure people know that, because we get people coming in and thinking it is illegal.”

A tobacco tangle both sides admit will likely be decided in a courtroom. The manufacturer of the machines, RYO Machine Rental, has filed a lawsuit against the State Treasury Department. A hearing has been set for June 21st in Ingham County Circuit Court.
