UK court shoots down tobacco companies' appeal on plain packaging-ITV

Reuters - UK Focus

LONDON, Nov 30 (Reuters) - A UK court has shot down an appeal brought by some of Britain's largest tobacco companies fighting the government's new plain packaging rules, ITV reported on Wednesday.

British American Tobacco (Kuala Lumpur: 4162.KL - news) and Japan Tobacco (Other OTC: JAPAF - news) said in May they planned to appeal a high court decision giving the green light to the new packaging rules, which went into effect that month.
