Where the litigation stands (As of October 2026)

Federal cases are consolidated as In re: Depo-Provera Products Liability Litigation, MDL No. 3140, before Judge M. Casey Rodgers in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Florida. The panel centralized the cases on February 7, 2025. Court orders now describe a settlement program: Case Management Order No. 18 (September 15, 2026) set up an administrative docket where eligible claimants already registered in the program must file complaints by November 30, 2026. Settlement terms are confidential, and the defendants maintain the drug is safe and effective. Cases outside the program continue in the MDL. If you think you qualify, don’t wait.
