Description

False Claims Act Insights explores how the U.S. government uses the False Claims Act (FCA) to stamp out fraud and corruption in government contracts. Each episode, Jonathan Porter, a former Assistant U.S. Attorney and currently a partner with Husch Blackwell’s White Collar, Internal Investigations & Compliance team, chats with preeminent guests to provide listeners with an up-to-date understanding of the FCA, including trends in recent litigation and compliance efforts. The show also explores those elements of the FCA that make it a uniquely powerful tool for the government against private business, including the Act’s utilization of whistleblowers and its qui tam provisions, as well as evolving theories of FCA liability that expand the boundaries of what the Act covers, including cybersecurity and so-called reverse FCA claims.
