Court of Appeals for the Seventh Circuit

1Opinion of the Court
KANNE, Circuit Judge.
The plaintiff — Relators are employees of Caremark. They filed a qui tam action under the False Claims Act. 31 U.S.C. § 3729 et seq. The district court held that subject matter jurisdiction existed but dismissed the complaint on the merits. On appeal, the Relators argue that the district court erred in dismissing the case while Caremark argues that the case should have been dismissed for want of subject matter jurisdiction. We conclude that subject matter jurisdiction exists and we affirm the judgment of the district court on the merits.
