Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit

1Opinion of the Court

CARL E. STEWART, Circuit Judge:

The Government appeals from the district court’s order granting Lorretta Tar-ango’s motion for a new trial. A jury found Tarango guilty of aiding and abetting her co-defendant, Dipakkumar Patel, in his efforts to defraud various federal health care programs by submitting false billing statements that failed to comply with the governing provisions of those programs. The Government contends that the district court abused its discretion by granting the motion. We disagree, and for the reasons set forth below, affirm the district court’s grant of a new trial.
