	Philip Morris pays damages to burned girl (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-13)
		Philip Morris attorneys, who tried to get the case dismissed, argued that the fire started from the car's faulty cigarette lighter but that the child's mother ultimately was to blame, Grisham said.
		Philip Morris officials have a history of defending lawsuits vigorously but settled this case because it was "unique, isolated and not likely to be replicated," said John Sorrells, a spokesman for Altria Group Inc., parent company of Philip Morris USA.
		Grisham said he sued Philip Morris in 1994 after investigators cited a cigarette as the cause of the blaze and after he learned that the Marlboro 100 and other cigarettes are designed to continue burning down to the filter even when someone is not inhaling.

	NOW with Bill Moyers. Transcript. Tobacco Traffic - Philip Morris Responds. 4.19.02 \| PBS
