A lawsuit was filed in Minneapolis on behalf of three smokers who are seeking class action status for all of the state's smokers. A judge declared illegal the 75-cent charge on each pack of cigarettes for "health impact fee" and the smokers demand their money back. The lawsuit states that tobacco distributors passed on the extra cost to consumers, so the smokers should get the refund.
