Intro: The State of Idaho will receive $3,750 from a legal settlement resolving allegations of illegal cigarette sales to Idaho retail stores, Attorney General Lawrence Wasden said today. Joseph Anderson, doing business as Smokin Joes, a New York-based company, agreed to the settlement to resolve alleged violations of the Idaho Tobacco Master Settlement Complementary Act.
In addition to the payment, Smokin Joes is prohibited from selling cigarettes that are not listed on the Attorney General's Directory of Compliant Tobacco Product Manufacturers and Brand Families. Smokin Joes must also report Idaho cigarette sales to the Attorney General as required by Idaho law.
Smokin Joes must pay an additional $3,750 to the State of Idaho if it violates any provisions of the settlement within the next five years.
