Dollar General Corporation disclosed that on October 26, 2026, the U.S. Federal Trade Commission (FTC), alongside multiple state attorneys general, filed a civil enforcement lawsuit against the company in the U.S. District Court for the Middle District of Tennessee.

Plaintiffs seek injunctive relief, monetary judgment, and civil penalties, which Dollar General warned could have a material adverse effect on its consolidated financial statements if resolved unfavorably.
