NASA contractor United Paradyne Corporation has agreed to pay $375,000 to settle a lawsuit filed by a former employee, Steven Walker, which alleged the company violated the False Claims Act by submitting claims for work it failed to perform.  According to the settlement agreement, United Paradyne had agreed to fabricate ground support equipment to NASA’s Space Launch System (SLS), but failed to maintain certain cleanliness standards and falsely certified to having conformed to NASA’s contractual requirements.  For his role exposing the fraud, Walker will receive $75,000.  USAO MDFL
