Top Gov't Contracts Cases Of 2025

Jason “Jay” Carey was quoted in a Law360 article about significant 2025 court rulings that shaped federal procurement law, including key decisions on bid protest standing, Other Transaction Authority (OTA) jurisdiction, and contract interpretation disputes.

The Court of Federal Claims issued two decisions in 2025 that laid out different interpretations of the court’s jurisdiction over OTA agreements.

Jay said, “Even though the overall trend seems to be towards finding jurisdiction … to get clarity on this jurisdictional issue, I think we will need to see the issue go up to the Federal Circuit as a practical matter.”
