The Liggett Group, the smallest of the nation'a five major tobacco companies, has broken ranks with the rest of the industry and agreed to settle several huge liability suits. The largest suit that Liggett settled was the Castano action case in which about 60 law firms are suing on behalf og every U.S. smoker who claims to be addicted.
