DOJ Seeks Supreme Court Review of Tobacco Ruling

After six years, the Justice Department's effort to "disgorge" big money from Big Tobacco may be in its final throes. Alleging decades of conspiracy to hide health risks from the public, the government is seeking $280 billion in past profits from nine tobacco companies.
