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.
