Herring: $4M Settlement with UPS for Overcharging Government Entities
2015-10-21 17:48:51| Air Courier - Topix.net
Attorney General Mark R. Herring today announced a $4 million settlement with United Parcel Service , the world's largest package delivery company, stemming from allegations that its employees violated the Virginia Fraud Against Taxpayers Act and the false claims laws of 13 other states, and the cities of New York City, Washington, D.C. and Chicago. The agreement resolves allegations contained in a multi-state complaint filed in the Eastern District of Virginia that certain UPS employees violated the law by recording inaccurate delivery times and inappropriately using "exception codes" on packages sent by government customers via UPS next-day delivery services.
