from the United States Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit.
Question presented
1. Whether the government must prove that a contracting officer exercised independent, contemporaneous discretion prior to T4D, or whether a T4D remains valid when the evidentiary record contains zero evidence that the contracting officer exercised any independent business discretion, so long as an underlying breach occurred. 2. Whether the government may satisfy its burden to prove the contemporaneous exercise of administrative discretion by relying solely on an unauthenticated memorandum that appears fraudulent on its face and is admitted “not for the truth of its contents.”?
