About the Lawsuit

On November 3, 2016, Bloomberg reported that an "antitrust investigation by the Justice Department, begun about two years ago, now spans more than a dozen companies," including Teva, "and about two dozen drugs."  The article further stated that a "grand jury probe is examining whether some executives agreed with one another to raise prices, and the first charges could emerge by the end of the year."  Additionally, according to Bloomberg, "[g]eneric drug companies are also contending with a civil price-fixing investigation by [the] Connecticut Attorney General."
