Summary
Christian Thiele examines the liability of tobacco manufacturers for tobacco-related illnesses. He reviews the history of tobacco litigation in the United States and presents a thorough analysis of U.S. procedural and product liability law as it relates to such litigation. Based on this analysis of U.S. law, he explores whether there is a viable legal basis for claims for tobacco-related illnesses under German law.
