Supreme Court Stays Corporate Transparency Act Injunction, But Beneficial Ownership Reporting Requirements Remain Paused

On January 23, 2025, the U.S. Supreme Court granted the Government’s application for a stay of an injunction issued by the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Texas in Texas Top Cop Shop.
