Answer: Rhetorical question.

An introductory device is a strategy used to begin a speech or an essay. It is meant to engage your audience. A rhetorical question is a good mechanism to do this because, whether the question is meant to be answered or not, it helps the audience focus on your speech by making it more personal and forcing them to think about the answer.

Whistle-blowers: a. Have no role in an FFCA case once it starts. b. Usually get rich from their role in the case. c. May file a
labwork [276]

Answer:

c. May file a qui tam suit in connection with an FFCA case.

Explanation:

The False Claims Act, also known as anti fraud law, (31 U.S.C. Sections 3729 through 3733) is considered to be the earliest qui tam law (which otherwise means "in the name of the King"), was first passed into law in 1863 and then later got amended in 1943 and 1986.

Hence, under the the False Claims Act, qui tam allows an individual or group of people (which are often referred to as whistle blower) with tenable proof of fraud against federal programs or contracts to sue the culprit on behalf of the United States Government. Thus, the government has the right to join or intervene in the action, however, should the government refused to join in the action, the whistleblower or the private plaintiff can proceed in the proceedings.

It is also pertinent to note that, a "qui tam" action can be filed in a federal district court in camera, under seal and in accordance to federal rules of civil procedure.

There are protection provisions provided for whistleblower under FFCA (Federal False Claims Act) and they are:

1. Reinstatement to work

2. Payment of double back pay

3. Compensation for any special damages such as cost of litigation process.

Elenna [48]

Answer:

probable reason for the officer to search.

Explanation:

In law, a warrant is a kind of legal authority giving by court to officers of the law to make a search of a person's property(which is known as the search warrant) or to arrest such person(which is known as the arrest warrant) if the person or Individual is found or suspected to have done or committed crime(s).
