Montgomery County Fiscal Court on March 17 approved a combined subdivision participation and release form tied to a remnant defendant opioid settlement dated Feb. 23, 2026.
The presiding official read a list of six additional defendants included in the remnant settlement, naming Associated Pharmacies Inc./American Associated Pharmacies, James Smith Company, Morrison Dickerson, Louisiana Wholesale Drug Company Incorporated, North Carolina Wholesale Drug Company Incorporated, and UNFI SuperValue. The court moved on a motion to approve the participation and release paperwork; voice votes were taken and the chair stated, "The motion carries."
Court members did not provide a roll-call tally in the transcript; the item was presented as settlement paperwork consistent with prior opioid litigation settlements and the county indicated it would execute the required release/participation documents.
Next steps: county staff or the county attorney will process the agreed participation/release paperwork as approved by the court.
