The United States Court of Appeals for the Eleventh Circuit denied Wellcare Health Plans, Inc.'s petition for a writ of mandamus. Wellcare sought to be recognized as a victim under the Crime Victims' Rights Act (CVRA) and the Mandatory Victims Restitution Act (MVRA) after its officers were convicted of healthcare fraud. The court held that Wellcare, having admitted to being a co-conspirator in the fraud, was not a victim and thus not entitled to restitution.
