April 17, 2025

On March 31, 2025, Judge Christopher Lopez of the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of Texas denied confirmation of the prepackaged Chapter 11 plan of Johnson & Johnson (“J&J”) affiliate Red River Talc LLC (“Red River”) and dismissed for “cause” Red River’s Chapter 11 case.  Most notably, Judge Lopez rejected Red River’s argument that the plan qualified for a “full pay” exception to the prohibition on nonconsensual third-party releases established by the Supreme Court in its Purdue Pharma decision last year.
