Since the publication of False Claims in Construction Contracts in late 2007, there have been important developments in the area. Two major new statutes -- the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act and the Fraud Enforcement and Recovery Act -- as well as the December 2009 "mandatory disclosure" rule all appeared in just a six-month period. This CD-ROM Update contains two updates of key legislation, regulations, and case law that will keep this book as a valuable resource for construction lawyers on this increasingly important subject. The False Claims in Construction Contracts 2010 Update (CDR) includes two new articles that explain the impact of theset critical developments:

• Recent Changes Affecting Government Contractors Related to False Claims in Construction Contracts
• Mandatory Disclosure and Compliance Program Requirements under Federal Government Construction Contracts

• Fraud Enforcement and Recovery Act of 2009 (FERA)
• Federal Acquisition Regulation: Final Rules and Small Entity Compliance Guide
• Contractor Code of Business Ethics and Conduct
