The local \(h^*\) -polynomial of a lattice polytope is an important invariant arising in Ehrhart theory. Our focus is on lattice simplices presented in Hermite normal form with a single non-trivial row. We prove that when the off-diagonal entries are fixed, the distribution of coefficients for the local \(h^*\) -polynomial of these simplices has a limit as the normalized volume goes to infinity. Further, this limiting distribution is determined by the coefficients for a particular choice of normalized volume. We also provide an analysis of two specific families of such simplices to illustrate and motivate our main result.
