With exclusive jurisdiction over bid protests and breach of contract claims appealed from the Court of Federal Claims and Boards of Contract Appeals, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit plays a critical role in interpreting government contracts law and resolving disputes between contractors and the U.S. Government. This free webinar, presented by Nathan Castellano, co-author of the highly regarded Nash & Cibinic Government Contracting Book Series, will discuss the Federal Circuit's unique role in the judicial system and its approach to government contracts cases. This practical discussion will review several of the Federal Circuit's most significant and interesting government contracts decisions from recent years, and how they impact government contracts practice in the Federal Circuit and beyond.
This webinar will:
- Discuss how the Federal Circuit fits within the rest of the judicial system and its role in shaping government contracts law and practice.
- Appreciate the differences between the Federal Circuit and other government contracts tribunals, e.g., the Government Accountability Office, Boards of Contract Appeals, and the Court of Federal Claims
- Analyze the Federal Circuit's recent, significant government contracts decisions with context for the Federal Circuit's approach to government contracts appeals
