Legal Intelligencer: No Private Right? No Problem: Ninth Circuit Lets 340B Pricing Claims Proceed Under the False Claims Act
The U.S. Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit just disrupted that assumption. In Adventist Health System of West v.

Legal Intelligencer: Taking a Plaintiff’s Case to the Next Level: Holding Individuals Liable Under Pennsylvania Law
