Whistleblower Rejects Allegations of Abusive Fee Generation

Overview


Catherine Battin represents a pillow manufacturing company before the Illinois Supreme Court, arguing that a tax whistleblower’s 1,000 false claims lawsuits constitute abusive fee generation. “This case provides a prime example of some of the abuses that can and do occur in these False Claims Act cases brought by this relator,” Ms. Battin said.
