    May 12, 2025

    In this episode of S&C’s Critical Insights, Annie Ostrager, Co-Head of S&C’s Employment Law Group, and Litigation Partner Kamil Shields, discuss recent developments in False Claims Act (FCA) cases, especially in light of the current Administration’s focus.

    Annie and Kamil provide background on the FCA and explain its role in investigations of and actions focused on alleged fraud in connection with government programs. They also cover recent notable settlements, with recoveries amounting to hundreds of millions of dollars.

    They also delve into Executive Order 14173, which has implications for the use of the FCA, focusing on antidiscrimination laws. The discussion includes recent court actions and the administration’s emphasis on investigating and penalizing illegal DEI practices in the private sector. 

    To learn more about risks and opportunities under the FCA in the new tariff environment, read Partner Thomas White and Special Counsel Andrew DeFilippis’ article in Bloomberg Law “New Tariff Environment Poses Big Risk and Opportunity Under FCA.”
