The Craven County Board of Commissioners voted to enter closed session to discuss pending opioid lawsuits.

A motion specifying discussion of the pending opioid litigation was made and seconded; the board approved moving into closed session and indicated it would reconvene after concluding the closed session. No substantive details of the litigation discussion were disclosed in open session.

Because the discussion took place in closed session, the public record contains only the motion and the vote to enter closed session; no board action or decision on the substance of the litigation was taken in open session.
