Members of the family who own OxyContin maker Purdue Pharma agreed to pay up to $7.4 billion in a new settlement to lawsuits over the toll of OxyContin.

The deal comes after the Supreme Court blocked a controversial bankruptcy plan for Purdue that shielded Sackler family members from future lawsuits.

A group of 15 states have reached a tentative new deal that would require them to set aside hundreds of millions of dollars from the settlement in a legal-defense fund for the family.

The Office of the Attorney General came to a $7.4 billion settlement with the Sackler family and their company, Purdue Pharma, over their actions leading up to the opioid crisis, which has killed several hundreds of thousands of people in the last two decades.

Purdue Pharma’s Sackler family owners have struck a new agreement to settle mass opioid litigation against them for a total of $6.5 billion, New York Attorney General Letitia James said Thursday.

The Sackler family and Purdue Pharma have agreed to pay a $7.4 billion settlement to end federal court claims filed by attorneys general on behalf of 15 states.

Purdue Pharma and its Sackler family owners have reached a new $7.4 billion settlement to resolve thousands of lawsuits alleging that the pain medication OxyContin caused a widespread opioid addiction crisis in the U.

The new settlement reopens a path to ending Purdue’s chapter 11 case, the longest and costliest corporate bankruptcy stemming from the U.S. opioid epidemic.
