Nationwide Injunction Halts Corporate Transparency Act Enforcement
TL;DR
A U.S. district court in Texas has issued a preliminary injunction halting the nationwide enforcement of the Corporate Transparency Act (CTA), including postponing the January 1, 2025, reporting deadline for certain companies. The injunction is based on a likely successful constitutional challenge by the plaintiffs. The U.S. Department of Justice is expected to appeal the decision, potentially seeking a stay or narrowing of the injunction. Companies are advised to continue preparing for compliance, as the situation may change if a stay is granted.
