SUMMARY:Qui Tam Section: [VIRTUAL] The FCA and Gatekeeper Fraud
DESCRIPTION:**Program hosted in (ET) Time Zone** \nThe federal government is increasingly relying on private “gate-keepers” to certify\, credential\, or otherwise approve participants in Government programs (both individuals and entities) to ensure adherence to regulatory standards. For example\, JCAHO certifies hospitals\, NCQA certifies MCOs\, HQAA certifies DME suppliers\, and other entities approve EHR software used by various health systems. When do relators have a viable FCA claim if there is fraud in the certification and/or credentialing process\, either on the gate-keeper by companies seeking to obtain necessary approval to obtain access to government programs and funds\, or by the gate-keeper performing the quasi-governmental function? What are the unique challenges of these types of FCA cases? What defenses might be raised? Looking ahead\, how might these cases impact future FCA cases relating to the misuse of AI devices? Or to the activities of quasi-governmental entities like DOGE? \nRegister Now!\nPresented by the FBA Qui Tam Section \n\nPresenters\nMODERATOR \n \nEdward Baker\nLieff Cabraser Heimann & Bernstein \nSPEAKERS \n \nOwen Foster\nPhillips & Cohen \n \nJay McCormack\nVerrill \n \nKevin Lownds\nOffice of the Attorney General\, Massachusetts \n\nRegistration\nRegister Here! \n\nFBA Members: $0\nNon-Members: $0\n\n\nCLE\nPlease note that CLE credit is not offered for this webinar. \n\nEmail Communication Policy \nBy registering for this event\, you agree to receive email communications from the Federal Bar Association and affiliated sponsors of the program concerning event details\, Continuing Legal Education certification\, programming changes\, upcoming events\, surveys\, and post-event communications. \nRecording Disclaimer \nBy registering for an FBA webinar\, you agree to the recording of audio and visual content presented during the live event and consent to subsequent use of the recording by the FBA.

SUMMARY:Qui Tam Section: [VIRTUAL] Insurance Coverage for FCA Resolutions & Defense Costs
DESCRIPTION:**Program hosted in (ET) time zone**\n\n\n\nThis panel of insurance dispute litigators and former Department of Justice False Claims Act prosecutors will discuss an evolving field of litigation between policyholders and insurers over coverage claims from False Claims Act settlements\, judgments\, and defense costs. Whether you defend FCA investigations and litigation\, or represent relators\, potential sources of insurance coverage are an important consideration. The panel will discuss the types of policies that may provide coverage\, and disputes arising under those policies. For example\, at what point during an FCA investigation is a “claim” made under the policy? Do FCA settlements stem from “wrongful acts” that may be excluded from coverage? What aspects of an FCA resolution might constitute a “loss” that is insurable? The panel will also review notable case law discussing these issues and more. \nRegister Today!\nPresented by the FBA Qui Tam Section \n\nPresenters\n\n\n\n\nDerek Adams\, Potomac Law Group\, PLLC (Moderator) \n \nLilit Asadourian\, Barnes & Thornburg LLP \n \nCara Duffield\, Lavin Rindner Duffield LLC \n \nEllen London\, London & Naor P.C. \n \n\nRegistration\nRegister Here! \n\nFBA Members: $0\nNon-Members: $0\n\n\nCLE\nPlease note that CLE credit is not offered for this webinar. \n\nEmail Communication Policy \nBy registering for this event\, you agree to receive email communications from the Federal Bar Association and affiliated sponsors of the program concerning event details\, Continuing Legal Education certification\, programming changes\, upcoming events\, surveys\, and post-event communications. \nRecording Disclaimer \nBy registering for an FBA webinar\, you agree to the recording of audio and visual content presented during the live event and consent to subsequent use of the recording by the FBA.

DESCRIPTION:**Program hosted in (ET) Time Zone** \nIn numerous circumstances\, the Government pays out money not so it can receive a tangible benefit for itself but rather to promote a policy objective designed to benefit third-parties\, or society as a whole. Thus\, in exchange for receiving Government money\, program participants do not promise to provide the Government with a specific product or service\, but rather promise to conduct themselves in a particular fashion\, or to spend the money in a particular way. Examples abound: Government loans or grants with policy strings attached\, such as minority and veteran set-aside funding; HUD loans and grants conditioned on using funds to promote low-income housing and requiring that such properties be maintained in habitable conditions; Government regulations prohibiting kickbacks or labor trafficking; Government subsidies conditioned on compliance with environmental or regulations; Pandemic funding designed to mitigate hardships experienced by employees affected by lockdowns; and many others. \nWhen recipients of Government funds fail to comply with the strings attached to the funding\, qualitatively impacting the very purpose of the government program or policy\, do they violate the FCA? If so\, how is the violation proved\, and what is the Government’s measure of damages\, especially where there does not appear to be any tangible fiscal impact on the Government? Is the Government entitled to recover the full amount it paid out\, based on the notion that the payment is tainted by the policy violation\, or are damages calculations meant to assess the benefit of the Government’s bargain? If a conditional loan is disbursed\, and then paid back\, can the Government or a relator still assert an FCA claim based on the borrower’s failure to comply with the regulatory conditions for the loan? This Roundtable webinar will explore these and similar questions relating to FCA liability and damages where the violation harms the public policy\, not the public fisc. \nRegister Today! \nPresented by the FBA Qui Tam Section \n  \n\nModerator\nFranklin Amanat\, Motley Rice \n\nSpeakers\nDenise M.

SUMMARY:Qui Tam Section: Litigation Finance in Qui Tam Cases
DESCRIPTION:**Program hosted in (ET) Time Zone** \nSo\, you may have heard about it and understand that it is something that appears\, every now and then\, in certain commercial cases or perhaps in personal injury cases for plaintiffs hoping for or waiting on a settlement. Its proponents call it a necessary tool for David’s going up against Goliaths. Its critics see it as a socially deleterious device encouraging spurious litigation. But did you know that litigation finance\, a/k/a third-party or non-party litigation funding\, can often find its way into FCA qui tam cases? Is that a good thing or a bad thing … for Relators and their lawyers now faced with having to finance a declined case coming out of seal against a Fortune 500 company? For those in the Relator’s Bar starting a new firm? For qui tam defendants and their counsel not quite sure of who they are up against? And for the government lawyers ultimately in charge of overseeing the case who may be concerned about who is calling the shots in the litigation? \nRegister Today! \n  \nPresented by the FBA Qui Tam Section \n  \n\nPresenters\nStephen J.

SUMMARY:Qui Tam Section: [VIRTUAL] Are Qui Tam Suits Unconstitutional?
DESCRIPTION:**Program hosted in (ET) Time Zone** \nIn the early summer of 2023\, Justice Thomas penned a notable dissent questioning whether the False Claims Act’s qui tam provisions comport with Article II of the U.S. Constitution. Since then\, qui tam defendants across the country have taken the cue and raised constitutional challenges to the FCA. The panel will discuss how courts have addressed these challenges over the past year and will highlight what to watch for as the issue continues to percolate. \n  \n                            Register Today!\n  \nPresented by the FBA Qui Tam Section \n  \n\nPresenters\nGerald C.

SUMMARY:Qui Tam Section: [VIRTUAL] Proving Conspiracy Under the FCA
DESCRIPTION:**Program hosted in (ET) Time Zone** \nExperienced 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. \n  \nRegister Today!\nPresented by the FBA Qui Tam Section \n  \n\nPresenters\nPamela C.

SUMMARY:Qui Tam Section: [VIRTUAL] The False Claims Act and Protection of Tribal Funds
DESCRIPTION:**Program hosted in (ET) time zone** \nAlthough the federal government contributes billions of dollars to Native American tribes every year\, one rarely hears about False Claims Act (FCA) cases involving the protection of these funds. Indeed\, there have only been a handful of FCA cases involving such funds. Why is this? Historically\, what fraudulent schemes by non-tribal private actors have targeted tribal funds and how has this fraud been addressed (or overlooked)? Is there a need and opportunity to do more\, whether with the federal FCA\, state FCAs\, tribal laws\, or other tools to protect these funds? What should Relator counsel\, Defense counsel\, and U.S. state and federal government counsel know about tribal funds\, law\, and communities before engaging in this practice area? \n*** This event does not offer CLE credit *** \nPresented by the Qui Tam Section \nCo-Sponsored by the Indian Law Section \n  \nOpening Remarks\nHelen B.
