Minnesota Attorney General Keith Ellison has personally opened his state’s lawsuit against Juul Labs and tobacco giant Altria. The state is seeking more than $100 million in damages. It's the first of thousands of cases against the e-cigarette maker to reach trial. In opening statement Tuesday, Ellison accused Juul of unlawfully targeting young people with vaping products to get a new generation addicted to nicotine. But David Bernick, an attorney for Juul, said its purpose was always to convert adult smokers of combustible cigarettes to a less-dangerous product — not to lure kids. The trial in Minneapolis is expected to last around three weeks.

Skier’s etiquette has emerged as a sticking point in a highly publicized trial where Gwyneth Paltrow is accused of causing a 2016 ski collision. Nearly every witness who has testified so far has been questioned about the tenets of a ubiquitous but mostly unknown skier’s responsibility code. Both Paltrow and the man who is suing her have claimed they were downhill on the slope, claiming they had the right of way when the crash happened. The trial has made “uphill” synonymous with “guilty,” and shone a spotlight on the legal implications of the etiquette rules that govern the expensive snow sport.
