<a href="https://www.goldbergkohn.com/people/roger-lewis/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Roger Lewis</a> is quoted in “Top Gov't Contract Cases In 2022: Midyear Report,” published in July 8, 2022, edition of <em>Law360</em>.

Roger discussed the Seventh Circuit’s recent ruling that Safeway Inc.’s drug-pricing practices did not give rise to FCA liability even though they deprived the government of discounts offered to other customers. The court ruled that Safeway's interpretation of the governing regulations for drug pricing was “objectively reasonable,” and thus not actionable under the FCA.

Roger commented on how the Seventh Circuit’s ruling could allow corporate defendants to escape liability simply by coming up with after-the-fact interpretations, even incorrect interpretations, that they did not actually hold at the time of their conduct. He noted that the Safeway ruling, if it stands, could mean that a defendant's actual intent to defraud the government is irrelevant in certain FCA cases.
