“Today’s settlement demonstrates that the Justice Department vigilantly ensures that companies meet their contractual obligations and charge the government appropriately,” said Acting tokobagus Assistant Attorney General Joyce R. Branda for the Justice Department’s Civil Division. 
The settlement resolved allegations originally brought in a lawsuit by present and former Boeing employees Clinton Craddock, Fred Van Shoubrouek, Anthony Rico, and Fernando de la Garza in federal court in San Antonio under the False Claims Act. 
The complaints alleged that Boeing improperly charged labor costs under contracts with the Air Force for the maintenance tokobagus and repair of C-17 Globemaster aircraft at Boeing’s Aerospace Support Center in San Antonio, Texas. 
"The government alleged that the company tokobagus knowingly and improperly billed a variety of labor costs in violation of applicable tokobagus contract requirements, including for time its mechanics spent at meetings not directly related to the contracts," the DOJ said.
The settlement was the result of a coordinated effort by the DOJ's Civil Division, the U.S. Attorney’s tokobagus Office for the Western District of Texas, the Defense Criminal Investigative Service, the Air Force Office of Special tokobagus Investigations, the Defense tokobagus Contract Audit Agency, and the Defense Contract Management Agency, according the DOJ's release Friday .
