Virginia Brands wins $5+ million verdict
Virginia Lawyers Weekly
Richmond partner Bryan Haynes and associate Robert Luck were mentioned in a January 17 Virginia Lawyers Weekly article about tobacco manufacturer Virginia Brands winning a $5,257,644 verdict.
Virginia Brands, the plaintiff, produced cigarettes for the defendant Kingston Tobacco under a contract in which Kingston tobacco agreed to pay for the cigarettes and associated regulatory charges incurred by Virginia Brands. After Kingston Tobacco’s outstanding balance became delinquent, Virginia brands terminated the parties’ agreement and filed suit against Kingston Tobacco. Hanes and Luck represented Virginia Brands during the trial.
