A lawsuit against an Arizona ski resort over the health risks of eating man-made snow was dismissed by the 9^th Circuit Court of Appeals as a “gross abuse of the legal system” and the court ordered the lawyer in the case to pay the defendant’s cost.  Now, a coalition of groups is asking the court to reconsider, saying that it would make lawyers less likely to take up contentious issues.
