Cohen Milstein Partner Jeanne A. Markey Quoted in Law360 Article, “FCA Sampling Gets New Ammo In High Court's Tyson Ruling”
March 24, 2016

Jeanne A. Markey, a partner at Cohen Milstein Sellers & Toll PLLC, predicted that the Tyson ruling will “give DOJ a tremendous amount of ammunition going forward, not just in this [Fourth Circuit] case, but in other FCA cases involving statistical sampling.”
