Summary

Eric Rubenstein and Ron Chapman join The Compliance Guy to discuss the implications of a recent dismissal of a False Claims Act case based on the appointment clause.

The guys explore the historical context of key tam cases, the role of relators, and the complexities surrounding the appointment clause.
