$13 Million Settlement in Whistleblower case between the Federal Government and two shippers of Military Freight

Settlement Amount:

$13,000,000

The allegations arose from a lawsuit filed by Richard Ricks, a former president and CEO of Menlo subcontractor EXP Logistics Solutions Inc and Marcelo Cuellar a former employee for Estes’ defense distribution depot, claiming Menlo Worldwide Government Services LLC and Estes Forwarding Worldwide LLC intentionally billed the United States Department of Defense for air shipping when the freight was in fact delivered less expensively by truck.

Richard Ricks and Marcelo Cuellar came forward with their allegations in 2013.

Under the settlement agreement, Menlo will pay $10 million to resolve the disputed fraud claims and Estes will pay $3 million.

The whistleblowers will be awarded 22% of the settlement or $2.86 million.
