Letter: Passive profits

Published 28 November 1998

From P. A. Sadler, Imperial Tobacco Limited

I was surprised to read in Netropolitan that plaintiffs’ lawyers in Florida
have an impressive track record in getting $350 million for passive
smokers
(This Week, 31 October, p 21).

They don’t—the lawyers got $49 million for themselves and
$300 million for a medical foundation. The individual claimants got
nothing at all.
