Help! I Got a Civil Investigative Demand from DOJ. What Do I Do?

Host Jonathan Porter (https://www.huschblackwell.com/profes...)  welcomes Husch Blackwell’s Catherine Hanaway (https://www.huschblackwell.com/profes...)  to explore the government’s use of civil investigation demands (CIDs) within the context of False Claims Act investigations. The CID is a powerful and broad tool, and they are used to gather a variety of information regarding the conduct under investigation. Jonathan and Catherine discuss the importance of handling CIDs with care from the earliest possible juncture, including communication through counsel with government investigators that can provide valuable insight as to the scope and nature of the inquiry. The discussion follows the arc of effective CID responses, exploring why it is vital to initiate a litigation hold and to refrain from internal communications regarding the investigation, as well as how to narrow the initial inquiry through collaboration with government investigators. Finally, Jonathan and Catherine wrap up the discussion with a brief overview of how internal investigations can provide companies with the perspectives and knowledge needed to address the concerns of government investigators.
