公司获得具有里程碑意义的和解：联邦阿片类药物诉讼

Napoli Shkolnik is happy to announce that our client Cuyahoga County, one of the bellwether plaintiffs in the National Opioid Litigation, has reached a landmark $260 million settlement against four of the key players responsible for the opioid epidemic.

本次和解代表我们的客户俄亥俄州凯霍加县以及俄亥俄州萨米特县，涉及第一次阿片类药物领头羊试验中五分之四的主要被告——三大制药分销商 McKesson、Cardinal 和 AmerisourceBergen Corp 以及 Teva制药工业。法律团队期待在未来几个月内审理针对主要药店被告的案件，包括 Walgreen Boots Alliance、CVS、RiteAid、沃尔玛和其他主要药店。

Cuyahoga 县的首席出庭律师 Hunter J. Shkolnik 被任命为原告执行委员会成员，涉及全国处方鸦片诉讼 (MDL 2804)。 “我们都致力于追求正义并为我们的客户实现最好的结果，”Shkolnik 先生说。

The team of experienced attorneys and support staff at Napoli Shkolnik included Partners Shayna E. Sacks, Salvatore C. Badala and Joseph L. Ciaccio along with Paul Napoli, Associates Maria Fleming and Syreeta DeFrance-Poindexter, and Paralegal Chelsea Thompson.

Napoli Shkolnik 的律师还在纽约州协调阿片类药物诉讼中发挥领导作用，Paul Napoli 被最高法院法官 Jerry Garguilo 任命为联合首席律师。下一次阿片类药物审判定于 3 月代表拿骚县和萨福克县在纽约最高法院萨福克县开始，届时全国将集中注意力处理这一公共滋扰问题。

阿片类药物危机摧毁城市、州和其他城市以及家庭和社区的时间太长了。任何人都很难找到没有在某种程度上受到这种影响所有年龄、性别和种族的流行病的人。它的范围没有界限。

The funding needed to provide the services needed to combat this crisis can be astronomical. The expenses incurred related to opioid addiction can include health care costs, criminal justice and victimization costs, social costs, lost productivity costs and more. The sheer size and complexity of the case is why many states and municipalities turned to Napoli Shkolnik .
