Stauffer v. Brooks Brothers, Inc. (Fed. Cir. Aug. 31, 2010)
Today, the Federal Circuit released its decision in Stauffer v. Brooks Brothers, finding that qui tam plaintiff Stauffer "had standing to sue Brooks Brothers" and remanding the case to the district court to address Brooks Brothers' motion to dismiss regarding proper pleading of the "intent to deceive" element of the false marking claim.
The court also reversed the district court's decision denying the government's motion to intervene.
