The Massachusetts False Claims Act is a powerful law enforcement statute that authorizes triple damages and civil penalties of up to $11,000 per false claim (adjusted by the Federal Civil Penalties Inflation Adjustment Act of 1990), as well as the AG's attorneys' costs and fees.
Whistleblowers who bring cases under the False Claims Act must file their Complaints under seal in a United States District Court, and provide a copy of the complaint, as well as a written statement of all material evidence supporting their allegations to the Attorney General of the United States and the local United ...
Key Steps in Filing Under Seal: The filing includes a detailed complaint and a disclosure statement that outlines the fraud and provides supporting evidence. Remain Under Seal: The case is initially sealed for a minimum of 60 days, during which the DOJ evaluates the claim and decides whether to intervene.
Unlike many other federal criminal statutes, the False Claims Act does not require evidence of specific intent to defraud. Instead, Section 287 employs the reduced standing of “knowing” conduct. This creates a much lower burden of proof for the government, and it allows for prosecution in a wide range of cases.
