About the Program

On Friday, March 1, 2024, the US District Court for the Northern District of Alabama granted Plaintiffs' Motion for Summary Judgment in National Small Business Association v. Yellen, declaring the Corporate Transparency Act (CTA) unconstitutional.

Join us for a panel discussion with experts who will explore the litigation, the constitutional issues it highlighted, and the decision's impact on reporting requirements and businesses. Our panelists include Vince Farhat, a litigator and former Assistant United States Attorney; Lydia Duynstee, a transactional business consultant; and Mark Hiraide, who advises entrepreneurs, startups, and publicly traded companies.
