Opinion

WELLS, J.

The estate of a tobacco plaintiff appeals a final judgment in the defendant tobacco companies’ favor, wherein the estate maintained an addiction to cigarettes containing nicotine was a legal cause of plaintiffs disease and death. Finding no merit to the claims of error raised, we affirm the final judgment and therefore find no need to and do not, address the tobacco company’s cross-appeal.
