Tenth Survey of White Collar Crime
The federal government is protected against false claims by imposition of criminal liability under 18 U.S.C. 287. Civil liability falls under 31 U.S.C. 3729-3733, which includes provisions for qui tam litigation. However, the distinction between criminal and civil false claims has been somewhat blurred by the 1986 amendments to the False Claims Act. Elements of the criminal offense include presentation of a claim that is false, fictitious or fraudulent; and knowledge of the claim's illegitimacy. Penalties and sentencing are also discussed.
