While your statement can be taken as fact, this story however is based on this legend: https://www.snopes.com/fact-check/cigarson/.

The Snopes article itself is from 2000.

Rarely are lawyers THAT stupid (those that are, gets appointed as judges by the likes of Trump to do the Republican's biddings), nor are insurers that passive in NOT fighting it out in court. They don't want these precedents to stand.

My guess was their lawyers told them in order to win they first had to prosecute, and they had to pay off first to make burning cigars a crime, then recoup all their losses with restitution in the criminal case…without the arson/fraud charge proven they might lose the case, thereby setting the horrific precedent. Ain’t laws fun!?

I’m just surprised there weren’t 20 charges of insurance fraud too.
