At noon on July 19, please join us for a panel discussion, presented by the National Defense Industrial Association and the Coalition for Government Procurement, to learn about the two decisions issued by the Supreme Court addressing important questions under the False Claims Act. The panel of False Claims Act professionals will brief you on the cases and the Court's holdings, including discussions of:
- What standards did the Court set out in the Supervalu case to assess the "knowledge" element of liability;
- What new definitions did the Court create concerning the "reckless disregard" and "deliberate ignorance" elements of liability;
- Whether regulatory ambiguity remains relevant to the determination of knowledge or liability;
- How will the Court's ruling in the Polansky case affect DOJ's ability to dismiss non-intervened qui tam cases;
- What signals did the Court send about the constitutionality of the qui tam enforcement regime;
- What can companies do in light of these decisions to mitigate False Claims Act risk?
