As urged by AHA, Supreme Court rules government can dismiss FCA case over relator’s objection 

When someone known as a “relator” brings a False Claims Act lawsuit on behalf of another party, the federal government may seek to dismiss the FCA action over the relator’s objection, so long as it intervened sometime during or after the litigation, the Supreme Court ruled June 16. In a friend-of-the-court brief, AHA, joined by the U.S. Chamber of Commerce and American Health Care Association, had urged the court to affirm the government’s authority to dismiss an FCA lawsuit after declining to intervene in the case.
