Darlene C. Sammarco v. State of Minnesota

Opinion

PER CURIAM.

Darlene C. Sammarco (Sammarco) appeals from the district court’s 1 dismissal of her claim, purportedly filed pursuant to the qui tarn provisions of the False Claims Act, 31 U.S.C. §§ 3729-3733 (2000). Having carefully reviewed the record and appellant’s brief, we agree with the district court that Sammarco’s complaint is barred by res judicata. See Lundquist v. Rice Mem’l Hosp., 238 F.3d 975, 976-77 (8th Cir. 2001) (per curiam).

Accordingly, we affirm the judgment of the district court. See 8th Cir. R. 47B.
