The case title identifies its subject; the index alone does not establish centralization status, detailed allegations, a medical connection, current rulings or settlement terms. Use the linked court documents to review those questions. ## Verified index information - **Full title:** Proton-Pump Inhibitor Products Liability Litigation (No. II) - **District:** NJ - **Master docket:** 2:17-md-2789 - **Judge:** Cecchi, Claire C. - **Index report date:** 2026-10-01 - **Report relationship:** Listed in this report - [JPML report](https://www.jpml.uscourts.gov/sites/jpml/files/Pending_MDL_Dockets_By_MDL_Type-October-1-2026.pdf#page=4) ## Preparation roadmap This is a preparation path, not a court schedule or a promise of a payout. 1. **Understand the matter.** Read the case overview and inspect its official sources. Keep allegations separate from findings. 2. **Explore your connection.** Use optional preparation questions. Interest in a matter is not proof of a claim. 3. **Build your record trail.** Product, medicine or device identity, if known. Add only what you already know or can verify. 4. **Make room for care.** Discuss health concerns independently of any legal claim. Clinical decisions belong with your care team. 5. **Choose professional review.** Start with your existing lawyer if represented. A lawyer reviews deadlines, jurisdiction and any filing or settlement options. ## Existing records that may help - Product, medicine or device identity, if known - An approximate timeline and existing receipts or records - Existing clinical reports and treating-team information ## Care information — separate from legal eligibility ### A conversation with your care team If you have a health concern, your existing clinician can review your history and decide whether specialist input is appropriate. Provider access, cost and clinical need depend on your situation. - Which existing records would help explain my concern? - Who should coordinate any follow-up I need? General information: [HRSA: finding affordable health care](https://www.hrsa.gov/get-health-care/affordable). This does not establish product-specific causation or an available appointment. Care may be accessed independently of a lawsuit. Provider fit, licensure, location, insurance, price and appointment availability have not been confirmed. Settlefy does not prescribe treatment, order tests, promise a cure or recommend stopping medication. Optional OPHealth: user-selected signed reports and measurements can be copied for private review. This is not a booked appointment, provider referral or ongoing medical monitoring. No record is sent to a lawyer through that connection. ## Research material and provenance ### UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT - [Original source](https://www.njd.uscourts.gov/sites/njd/files/17md2789%20CMO14.pdf) - Access: Retrieved and text-extracted; current legal interpretation still needs professional review - Retrieved: 2026-10-28T23:20:18.433Z - SHA-256: 6f7b7ad2930ca9415892e9e84880c72b85934cb8fb0b2e48452ec01fb871130d - Text inspection: first 8 PDF pages; attachments or later pages may not be covered. ### IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT - [Original source](https://www.njd.uscourts.gov/sites/njd/files/CaseManagementOrderNo7.pdf) - Access: Retrieved and text-extracted; current legal interpretation still needs professional review - Retrieved: 2026-10-28T23:20:19.475Z - SHA-256: 986aef412e4b3973f8afe3fe40a7c6c397e12b2250bb6185a4bd1cabe7b4f018 - Text inspection: first 8 PDF pages; attachments or later pages may not be covered. ### UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT - [Original source](https://www.njd.uscourts.gov/sites/njd/files/CaseManagementOrderNo9_0.pdf) - Access: Discovered official link; live retrieval or full review not completed - Retrieval date: not verified ### Case 2:17-md-02789-CCC-MF Document 164 Filed 03/23/18 Page 1 of 8 PageID: 3923 - [Original source](https://www.njd.uscourts.gov/sites/njd/files/CMO11_0.pdf) - Access: Discovered official link; live retrieval or full review not completed - Retrieval date: not verified ### Case 2:17-md-02789-CCC-LDW Document 899 Filed 01/24/23 Page 1 of 2 PageID: 116054 - [Original source](https://www.njd.uscourts.gov/sites/njd/files/MDL2789_CMO91.pdf) - Access: Discovered official link; live retrieval or full review not completed - Retrieval date: not verified ## Research gaps and professional review - Verify the operative complaint, later amendments and current court orders. - Verify any settlement notice, administrator, release, deadline and currently open intake. - Obtain current counsel-approved screening criteria; no eligibility rules are approved here. - Have qualified clinicians review any clinical mapping; general care sources are not case criteria. ## Updates [Live case page and source-update coverage](https://settlefy.com/litigation/2789#case-updates).
