Recently, I received an email from a national public interest organization dedicated to whistleblower advocacy. The message asked whether a relator (i.e., a whistleblower), while not a victim of fraud, has standing to seek corporate veil-piercing in a False Claims Act case where the government declined to intervene. It is an interesting question, and no one seems to know the answer. Having litigated complex veil-piercing cases and complex declined whistleblower cases, I wanted to dig a little deeper.
