Tell us about your caseOn October 8, 2026, the Pennsylvania Supreme Court agreed to review the City of Philadelphia’s lawsuit against CVS, Albertsons, and Acme. The city says those pharmacies fed a public health and safety emergency. The pharmacies say the injuries are individual harms, not a public nuisance.
This is the city’s case, not a private injury claim. People searching it are usually trying to understand public-nuisance lawsuits, pharmacy cases, or whether a similar harm in their own family can be referred to a lawyer.
A private message about an opioid injury, a pharmacy, or a related death is a different file. Send the county, the dates, and what happened. The desk reads it and refers it. This note is not a statement that the desk is involved in the city’s case.
