“This move by Purdue Pharma was not unexpected, and we have joined a number of states in preparing accordingly,” Georgia Attorney General Chris Carr said. “Our focus from the beginning has been to hold those accountable for their role in fueling the opioid crisis and to quickly and efficiently get resources into the hands of those who are struggling."

While Georgia has agreed to the planned $10 billion settlement with OxyContin maker Purdue Pharma, the state’s opioid litigation against a string of other drug companies and distributors will continue in the Gwinnett County business court, Attorney General Chris Carr has said.
Carr also said Purdue’s bankruptcy won’t affect the state’s ability to recover.
