Non-Smokers' Rights Association v. Express Expansion, et al., Case No. 0631008449, Court of First Instance - Paris (2007).
Defendants, a magazine and its directors, were cited for publishing two images of Formula 1 race car drivers with tobacco advertising on their uniforms and vehicles. The court examined the photographs and held that defendants were not liable because the alleged tobacco advertising was illegible, it was a brand only available in China (where such advertising was permissible), and the publication of the photos bore no relationship to tobacco advertising.
