United States Eighth Circuit
U.S. EX REL COSTNER v. URS CONSULTANTS, INC., 02-3433
False Claims Act section 3730(d)(4) is not an express provision regarding costs and thus does not displace the district court's authority to award costs under Fed.R.Civ. P. 54, and the amount of costs awarded was not an abuse of discretion.
