False Claims Act 101: Federal Dollars Mean False Claims Act Vulnerability
This is a blog series on the False Claims Act (FCA), 31 USC §§ 3729, et seq., which targets any person that knowingly submits false claims for payment or false statements material to false claims to the US government. FCA violators can be liable for three times the government’s damages, plus penalties for every false claim or statement. In this blog series, we will walk through what all federal contractors and recipients of federal funding should know about the FCA, including the elements that the government must prove to establish FCA liability, the life cycle of a typical FCA case, and the roles of qui tam relators and the DOJ in FCA cases.
