New developments on the Corporate Transparency Act (CTA), since its reinstatement last December 23. Now the Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals is reversing its previous decision. Given the ongoing uncertainty, we suggest companies be ready to file quickly if the preliminary injunction is lifted or overturned. This could mean the January 13 deadline is reinstated, or a new deadline pops up with little warning. It’s important that reporting companies keep an eye on the litigation updates and any new guidance from FinCEN.
LEGAL UPDATE: CTA COMPLIANCE – ON HOLD…Again
December 30, 2024
In a significant legal development, a Texas federal court issued a nationwide preliminary injunction on December 3, 2024, halting the enforcement of the Corporate Transparency Act (CTA). The ruling temporarily suspends the CTA’s reporting requirements, including the critical January 1, 2025, compliance deadline. The Department of Justice may appeal this decision to the 5th Circuit Court of Appeals, which could lead to further legal proceedings and potential changes in the status of the injunction. In this blog, we break down the reasons behind the court’s decision, what it means for the Corporate Transparency Act, and what steps businesses should take to stay prepared.

The new amendments extend beyond gender, now barring pay discrimination based on membership in any protected class. Protected classes under the 2024 EPOA include age, sex, gender, marital status, race, national origin, sexual orientation, gender expression, gender identity, presence of a disability, and more. This is a major development for employers, as the law now requires that pay equity be ensured across a wide spectrum of protected classes.
