Under 31 USC 3730(b)(2), a private relator is supposed to file a False Claims Act complaint under seal, serve it on the Attorney General, and keep it confidential for 60 days after filing to give the Attorney General time to decide whether to intervene and take over the action.  Defendant alleged that the relator’s attorney here disclosed the contents of the complaint to news media and others while the stay was in effect.  This decision holds that violation of the statutory seal does not require the district court to dismiss the complaint.  Instead, dismissal is discretionary with the district court, which may impose other appropriate sanctions instead.
