In RJ Reynolds Tobacco Co. v. Philip Morris USA, Inc., the Fourth Circuit in a per curiam opinion for the panel of Judges Widener and Michael and Senior District Judge Richard Williams from the E.D. Va. in Richmond affirmed a North Carolina court's entry of summary judgment for Philip Morris on state and federal law anti-trust claims related to the marketing of cigarettes. Interestingly, David Boies argued for Philip Morris, and on the other side of the case, among others, Boies' old firm, Cravath, Swaine & Moore.
