In its U.S. ex rel. Scott Rose, et al. v. Stephens Institute decision, the Ninth Circuit ruled that Escobar’s two-part falsity test for implied certification is mandatory in establishing liability in False Claims Act (FCA) cases.
In this way, Stephens Institute may prove to be useful to certain FCA defendants. However, the Stephens Institute court expressed skepticism about whether Escobar’s two-part test establishes the only way to establish implied certification liability. This latest in a growing body of case law interpreting Escobar illustrate the need for plaintiffs and defendants to keep themselves abreast of future changes and developments concerning this case.
