The third pharmaceutical company that objects to state use of its drugs for executions, is being allowed to join two other firms in Nevada state court hearings. A judge in Las Vegas Tuesday let Sandoz Inc. join drugmakers Alvogen and Hikma Phamaceuticals USA in a lower-court case on the stalled execution of Scott Dozier. Clark County District Court Judge Elizabeth Gonzalez set a Sept. 10 court date -two days ahead of state supreme court hearings Sept. 12. Sandoz, Alvogen and Hikma says Nevada improperly obtained their products for an unauthorized use. Execution dates set in November and July were delayed. Dozier has requested execution and says waiting for it is “Torture.”
