Dating back to the 1970s, the flip tax — also known as a transfer fee — has been a popular and relatively painless way for New York City co-op boards to replenish their reserve funds while avoiding assessments and maintenance hikes. By requiring apartment sellers to cough up a portion of the sale price, usually from 1% to 3%, the flip tax has become a vital source of financial stability for co-ops. The practice was challenged in the courts in the 1980s, resulting in a ruling that co-op boards could impose a flip tax only if one were authorized in the original offering plan or had been permitted through an amendment to the proprietary lease. Furthermore, the courts ruled, all flip taxes had to be imposed equally. Today, four decades later, flip taxes are still a source of contention.

Olshan Frome Wolosky LLP litigation partner Adrienne Ward was quoted in an Agenda article on the Delaware Supreme Court’s April decision in In re Match Group, Inc. Derivative Litigation. In the decision, the Court held that Delaware companies seeking to receive the less stringent business judgment standard of review in transactions involving controllers must ensure that the committee approving the deal is composed entirely of independent directors. Adrienne advises that boards will want to take a closer look at the independence of committees tasked with overseeing transactions: “When it’s time to form special committees, I think [boards] really need to give a second look at who’s chosen for those committees, and really consider personal relationships.” While the Court made clear in its opinion that the MFW framework—which requires transactions to be negotiated by an independent committee and approved by a vote of an informed majority of minority stockholders when controllers are involved—applies to all transactions involving controllers, Adrienne explains that the bigger takeaway is the court’s special-committee independence findings. Previously, she says, it was unclear whether the committee had to be entirely made up of independent directors. “I think the takeaway is to do refreshers [on independence],” Adrienne concludes. “If you’re on a board, do a fresh assessment at the time of the transaction.” #OlshanLaw #BoardOfDirectors #Delaware #Litigation https://lnkd.in/eMaUdC2E

🚨 Understanding Warrant vs. Summons Complaints in New Jersey 🚨 In this video, BLG partner Robert Bianchi, Esq. discusses the critical differences between a warrant and a summons complaint in New Jersey. Navigating the legal system can be daunting, especially when facing the complexities of criminal charges. One question that frequently arises is the difference between a warrant and a summons complaint. Bob breaks down these terms, explaining that a summons complaint, identifiable by an 'S' number, allows the accused to be free post-complaint issuance. On the other hand, a warrant complaint, marked with a 'W', signifies a more severe scenario where the accused is detained, photographed, and fingerprinted. This video is essential for anyone seeking clarity on these processes or facing such circumstances -> https://lnkd.in/ez4tP5sx Stay informed with regular legal updates from our team of former prosecutors at the Bianchi Law Group.
