Casenote Who's on First?: Why Philip Morris USA v. Williams Left Juries Confused About Whose Injuries Can Be Considered When Determining Punitive Damages I. INTRODUCTION For the third time in eleven years, the United States Supreme Court imposed constitutional limits on punitive damage awards. In Philip Morris USA v. Williams,' the Court, in a 5-4 decision, held that punitive damages cannot be used to punish a defendant for injuries that the defendant infficted upon nonparties to the case.2 However, the Court also held that injuries to nonparties can be considered when determining the reprehensibility of the defendant's conduct under the "Gore guideposts."3 Nevertheless, this decision is important for trial lawyers for what the Court did not hold.

  • Answer and Defenses of Respondent Altria Group, Inc., With
    PUBLIC response to competition. Altria withdrew its e-vapor products because it concluded that they could not meet FDA’s regulatory requirements, because they lacked consumer appeal, and because they had lost money and had no short- or long-term path to profitability. The minority investment that the FTC challenges, which was designed to make JLI a more successful competitor by, among other things, helping it to successfully navigate complex regulatory hurdles and thereby continue selling its products, does not violate the antitrust laws. Altria submits that, on the full record, and in considering the applicable law, the relief sought by the Complaint should be denied. Altria’s subsidiary, Philip Morris USA, has for more than a century been one of the nation’s leading manufacturers of conventional, combustible cigarettes. In 2012, Altria established a new subsidiary, Nu Mark, to develop reduced-harm tobacco products, recognizing that adult consumers were becoming interested in e-vapor products because they could potentially provide some or all of the satisfaction of combustible cigarettes without the associated tar and without the stigma associated with smoking. Although Altria set up Nu Mark to compete, it did not have scientists or technical experts who were experienced in developing e-vapor products. After failing in its initial efforts to develop a successful product on its own, Altria undertook an acquisition strategy beginning in 2014. All of this was done at a time when the FDA did not regulate e-vapor products. Far from being a “threat to JLI’s market dominance” as the FTC alleges, Altria’s effort was a failure.
