Intervention in the lawsuit against Articles 14 to 17 of Act 1335 of 2009.Mayo 31 of 2010


Defendant: Artículos 14 a 17 de la Ley 1335 de 2009.


Dejusticia intervenes to contest the claim and defend the constitutionality of Articles 14-17 of Act 1335 of 2009. These articles ban the advertisement of tobacco derivatives. The intervention argues that given the proven harmful effects of tobacco, the State may set a "purely passive market" for these products, meaning that the state will tolerate them-which includes allowing the sale and consumption- but discourages its use and therefore prohibits advertising and promotion.
