B&P Costs Plus Injunctive Relief Permitted
Client Alert | less than 1 min read | 02.24.09
The CFC in Alabama Aircraft Indus., Inc. v. U.S. (Feb. 3, 2009) rejected the government's argument that, once the court has granted injunctive relief, any request for bid preparation costs must be denied. The court ruled that the statute has no "choose one only" provision, and, when the contractor can show that B&P efforts were wasted due to agency error, it should receive reimbursement for them even though it also is awarded injunctive relief.

On July 6, 2026, the U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) and the U.S. Department of Homeland Security (DHS) published an Interim Final Rule (IFR) setting up a new federal framework that allows state, local, Tribal, and territorial (SLTT) law enforcement and correctional agencies to detect, track, and, in some cases, disable or seize drones. The rule directly affects SLTT agencies looking to stand up counter-drone programs, as well as drone and counter-drone technology companies whose products will be subject to federal review and approval. Although the IFR bypassed the Administrative Procedure Act’s standard notice-and-comment process on good cause grounds — citing the statutory 180-day deadline and urgent public safety needs — the rule is already legally binding and effective as of July 1, 2026. The Departments are nonetheless accepting post-promulgation comments through September 4, 2026.
