Introducing the New and Improved Federal False Claims Act!



As I mentioned a week or two ago, the Federal False Claims Act has been updated and improved by the Fraud Enforcement and Recovery Act of 2009.  

While the amendments to the FCA fall short of those proposed in the still-pending False Claims Correction Act of 2009, the amendments are important and were needed.  

Top qui tam defense lawyer Jack Boese  has produced a red-lined version of the new Federal False Claims Act, which I am sharing here.  

I will write more later about the amended statute, once I have had a chance to think it through a little more.  I am wondering, however, how many states will immediately act to amend their own state false claims acts to incorporate the new changes.  

Stay tuned for more updates.
