Stalley brought a qui tam action against a group of skilled nursing facilities for failing to reimburse Medicare under the Medicare Secondary Payer Act (MSP). The action was removed and then the Defendants filed a motion to dismiss for lack of Article III standing. Because he was neither eligible for Medicare nor injured, the Court found that he lacked standing and dismissed the claim. See also Stalley v. Erlanger Health System et al., 2007 U.S. Dist. LEXIS 14589 (E.D. Tenn. 2007) (motions to dismiss granted); Stalley v. Ameris Health Systems, LLC, 2007 U.S. Dist. LEXIS 13200 (E.D. Ark. 2007) (staying action pending 8th Circuit appeal following dismissals in other courts); Stalley v. Genesis Healthcare Corp., 2007 U.S. Dist. LEXIS 17452 (D. Pa. 2007); Brockovich v. Cmty. Med.
