Qui Tam Section: [VIRTUAL] Proving Conspiracy Under the FCA
**Program hosted in (ET) Time Zone**
Experienced FCA counsel will discuss the development, pleading, strategic issues, factual complexities, and relative legal ease of litigating a case where defendants are alleged to have conspired to violate the FCA. The discussion will center on their experience in litigating one of the most factually and procedurally complex FCA cases. The roundtable will cover the process from amassing the evidentiary background to plead and survive dismissal of conspiracy claims, the strategic decisions impacting discovery, and the types of evidence which will satisfy (for summary judgment purposes) the legal element of establishing an agreement among the conspirators to violate the FCA. The panel will also juxtapose a conspiracy claim to one based on causing the submission of false claims, and the relative ease of the former. Finally, the panelists will touch on issues related to resolution, including joint and several liability.
