Federal Court Blocks Controversial Corporate Transparency Act
December 16, 2024
On December 3, 2024, the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Texas issued a landmark decision enjoining the enforcement of the Corporate Transparency Act (CTA). In Texas Top Cop Shop, Inc. et al. v. Garland et al., the court held that the CTA, which requires extensive disclosure of beneficial ownership information, likely exceeds Congress’s constitutional authority. The ruling prevents implementation of the Act and its accompanying regulations nationwide, and corporate finance teams that were feverishly working to meet the January 1, 2025 compliance date can enjoy a moment of respite.
