She Leaves No Stone Unturned: What FCA Litigants Can Expect From Justice-Designate Ketanji Brown Jackson
Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson was confirmed to serve as the Supreme Court’s newest justice. Given her prestigious career as a litigator and a federal jurist, there is no shortage of material to scrutinize, but what does her judicial record envisage for FCA litigants? We have only a small sample on which to draw any conclusions, but the length and detail of the two FCA opinions she authored as a district judge suggests that she is certainly familiar with the statute and is likely to approach any FCA case with the same calm, measured approach with which she responded to the barrage of questioning during her intense confirmation hearings. Indeed, this was demonstrated by her response to Senator Chuck Grassley’s line of FCA questioning on day two of her confirmation hearings.
