        We note that the instant case is not a particularly
“hard case” from an equitable perspective. The Defendants were
well aware of their contractual and regulatory obligation to
maintain the Complex in decent, safe, and sanitary condition.
Similarly, at the time that they signed the HAP contract, the
Defendants were aware that they would be obliged to make a
monthly certification of their compliance with the “decent, safe,
and sanitary” standard, and that a false certification of
compliance with this standard would subject them to treble
damages under the civil FCA or prosecution under the criminal
FCA.
