The District Court for the District of Columbia preliminarily enjoined a debarment decision because the debarring official's rationale for the decision was likely flawed and the plaintiff established he would suffer some degree of irreparable harm. The plaintiff was a chief executive officer of a freight forwarder that settled a qui tam False Claims Act suit and pleaded guilty to knowingly and willfully making a material false statement to the government. Subsequently, the plaintiff was debarred for a period of three years. In his debarment decision, the DO stated the plaintiff's "conduct as ... CEO and sole shareholder was of so serious or compelling a nature as to affect his present responsibility to be a [g]overnment contractor or subcontractor pursuant to FAR 9.406-2(c)" and "[a] separate and independent basis for [the plaintiff's] debarment rest[ed] on the imputation of [the contractor]'s criminal, fraudulent, and seriously improper conduct to [the plaintiff]" under FAR 9.406-5(b). The contractor itself was not debarred.
