"The United States Court of Federal Claims (in case citations, Fed. Cl. or C.O.F.C.) is a United States federal court that hears non-tort monetary claims against the U.S. government.... The National Childhood Vaccine Injury Act, of 1986, gave the court the authority to create an Office of Special Masters to receive and hear certain vaccine injury cases, and the jurisdiction to review those cases."
