Definition

qui tam action

: (kwee tam) n. from Latin for "who as well," a lawsuit brought by a private citizen (popularly called a "whistle blower") against a person or company who is believed to have violated the law in the performance of a contract with the government or in violation of a government regulation, when there is a statute which provides for a penalty for such violations. Qui tam suits are brought for "the government as well as the plaintiff." In a qui tam action the plaintiff (the person bringing the suit) will be entitled to a percentage of the recovery of the penalty (which may include large amounts for breach of contract) as a reward for exposing the wrongdoing and recovering funds for the government. Sometimes the federal or state government will intervene and become a party to the suit in order to guarantee success and be part of any negotiations and conduct of the case. This type of action is generally based on significant violations which involve fraudulent or criminal acts, and not technical violations and/or errors.

Who Are You, Polly Maggoo?

Who Are You, Polly Maggoo? (French: Qui êtes-vous, Polly Maggoo?) is a 1966 French film directed by William Klein.

It is a satirical arthouse mockumentary spoofing the fashion world and its excesses. It stars Dorothy McGowan as Polly Maggoo, an American supermodel who is being followed by a French television crew, and Grayson Hall as Miss Maxwell, a fashion-magazine editor modeled after Diana Vreeland, and Philippe Noiret as the TV reporter and director. Also appearing are Jean Rochefort, Sami Frey, and Alice Sapritch.

McGowan was an American model prior to the film; she modeled for Vogue and Harper's Bazaar. After the release of the film, McGowan's first and only, she disappeared from public view and apparently neither acted nor modeled again, according to Klein.
