First PI payments targeted Summer 2026

The $7.4B headline is misleading for PI claimants. The vast majority goes to state governments and opioid abatement programs — not to individual victims. The PI Trust is $900M from Purdue (now Knoa Pharma). The Eighteenth Amended Plan became effective May 1, 2026; the PI Claims Administrator is targeting first payments for Summer 2026, pending eligibility reviews and lien resolution. The Sackler family's $6.5B goes to states over 3 years. PI claimants who decline to release Sackler claims are limited to the $900M Purdue pool only.

Not a bankruptcy trust — a federal claims program. The Camp Lejeune Justice Act (part of the 2022 PACT Act) lets those exposed to contaminated water at the base (Aug 1953–Dec 1987) claim against the United States. Filing closed Aug 10, 2024. The Elective Option fast-track pays $100K–$450K by injury tier and exposure length, plus $100K for qualifying deaths (max $550K). The bottleneck is administrative: hundreds of thousands of claims remain in the Navy pipeline while bellwether trials in the Eastern District of North Carolina shape settlement values for those who held out.
