Molina Healthcare of Illinois, Inc. v. Prose

The Chamber's amicus brief urged the Supreme Court to grant certiorari and review two questions:  (1) whether a False Claims Act relator must plead particulars of an alleged false claim or only bare facts giving rise to a plausible inference of false claims; and (2) whether a request for payment that makes no specific representations about the goods or services provided can be false or fraudulent on a theory of implied false certification.

John P. Elwood, Craig D. Margolis, Christian D. Sheehan, and Jayce L. Born of Arnold & Porter Kaye Scholer LLP and the U.S. Chamber’s Litigation Center served as co-counsel for the U.S. Chamber.
