The wrongful death lawsuit filed by Prince’s family members has been dismissed, indicating that family members may have reached settlements with defendants including the Minnesota doctor who saw Prince in the weeks before his death, as well as the Illinois hospital that treated him for an opioid overdose seven days before he died. However, legal efforts drag on to value and dispose of his estate once estimated at around $200 million. Prince was 57 when he died of an accidental fentanyl overdose on April 21, 2016, without leaving a will. No one was criminally charged in his death and the source of the counterfeit pills that killed him remains unknown. Prince’s heirs filed a wrongful death lawsuit against a slew of defendants in April 2018, alleging they had the duty and opportunity to diagnose and treat Prince’s addiction and prevent his death, but failed to do so.
