There's still some confusion around the Corporate Transparency Act and the unconstitutional ruling back in March. Keep these key points in mind: ▶ That ruling currently only impacts the reporting requirements for the plaintiffs in that case. ▶ All other companies are still required to file a beneficial ownership information report with FinCEN (unless the company is exempt). ▶ Companies formed during 2024 have 90 days to file a report. ▶ Companies formed before 2024 have until January 1, 2025, to file a report. ▶ Check if any exemptions from the filing requirement are available. Be sure to stay informed and compliant to avoid penalties. #CorporateTransparencyAct #CTA

Noncompetes are here to stay – for now. On August 20, 2024, the Federal District Court in Texas issued a permanent injunction stating that the Federal Trade Commission’s (“FTC”) rule banning noncompetition provisions was arbitrary and capricious and that the FTC lacked the authority to ban all noncompetition provisions in the United States. While we expect the FTC to appeal the District Court’s injunction to the Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals, this means that the FTC’s rule that was originally meant to go into effect on September 4, 2024 will no longer do so.
