On December 3, 2024, the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Texas issued an opinion and order (the Order) enjoining the federal government, including the U.S. Department of the Treasury’s Financial Crimes Enforcement Network (FinCEN), from enforcing the Corporate Transparency Act (CTA) and a FinCEN rule implementing the CTA, codified at 31 C.F.R. § 1010.380) (i.e., the Reporting Rule). The Reporting Rule requires certain entities formed or registered to do business in the U.S. (reporting companies) to report information about themselves, including personal identifiers for their natural-person “beneficial owners.” For background on the CTA and the Reporting Rule, please see our previous client alert discussing a separate district court’s decision (National Small Business United v. Yellen, No. 5:22-cv-01448 (N.D. Ala. Mar. 1, 2024) (NSBU) ruling the CTA unconstitutional.)
