How courts have described this case
Verbatim parenthetical descriptions written by other courts when citing this decision. Ranked by citation-network relevance.
- noting that courts permit alternative theories based on breach of contract and unjust enrichment to both continue past a motion to dismiss
- determining that participation in the MA Program does not entail a contractual relationship
- allowing an alternative claim for unjust enrichment where plaintiff had claimed breach of contract because the contract at issue only encompassed a part of the relationship between the parties
- denying early motion for summary judgment on statute of limitations grounds in qui tam action and noting that “[a]fter further discovery, a renewed motion for summary judgment may be appropriate”
- Court did not dismiss alternative claims, but if “appropriate, defendants may raise the issue later as a motion for summary judgment”
- “In light of our finding that the parties formed an enforceable contract, relief under a promissory estoppel claim is unwarranted.”
