THE MINNESOTA FALSE CLAIMS ACT IS SIGNED INTO LAW
We began the 2009 state legislative season with a list of states paying a federally mandated penalty for not having a false claims act.
Today, I am happy to report that the Minnesota False Claims Act has been signed into law. Minnesota appears to be the only state passing a state-FCA this session, but that whittles the list of non-complying states down to 27.
Congratulations to Minnesota TAF members Brian Wojtalewicz, Gerald Robinson, and Neil Thompson on their newly enacted state law. My understanding is that it becomes law next summer.
It also seems that the MN law has some strange provisions regarding vicarious liability and a "right to cure" provision. Time will tell whether the law is approved by the federal government for compliance with the federal Deficit Reduction Act.
Congratulations again!

I like your style, the fact that your site is a little bit different makes it so interesting, I get fed up of seeing same-old-same-old all of the time. I've just stumbled this page for you :-D
