   U.S. Court of Appeals Case No:  15-2220
   U.S. District Court for the District of Minnesota - Minneapolis   
   [PUBLISHED] [Colloton, Author, with Loken and Kelly, Circuit Judges] 
   Civil case - False Claims Act. For the court's prior decision in the 
   matter, see In re Baycol Products Litigation, 732 F.3d 869 (8th Cir. 
   2013). The district court erred in dismissing plaintiff's qui tam action 
   under the False Claims Act for lack of subject matter jurisdiction, based 
   on its conclusion that her action was based on public disclosure of 
   allegations or transactions and that she was not, therefore, an original 
   source of the information upon which her allegations were founded; under 
   this circuit's prior case law, so long as the relator has direct knowledge 
   of the true state of facts, she can be an original source even though her 
   knowledge of the misrepresentation is not first-hand; remanded for further 
   proceedings. Judge Loken, dissenting.
