California Court of Appeal

Affirming the district court's dismissal of a qui tam suit brought under the False Claims Act against a medical device supplier alleging bribes, illegal payments, and other wrongdoing, because the US government had entered into a settlement regarding the activities and a qui tam suit cannot be brought based on allegations or transactions that are already the subject of a civil suit in which the government is a party.
