9th Circuit Rules in Favor of Relator in “Rent-A-Vet” False Claims Act Qui Tam Case Against Cardinal Health

The United States Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit ruled in favor of a relator, reviving its False Claims Act lawsuit and overturning a District Court decision to dismiss the whistleblower’s case against healthcare company Cardinal Health and various “small business front companies.” The case now goes back to the trial court for further proceedings.
