LAW MATTERS - Episode 12

In Episode 12, the attorneys discuss pending litigation filed against the U.S. Treasury Department in the United States District Court for the Northern District of Texas-Amarillo Division. At issue in the case, as discussed by attorneys Kutzer and Olson, is the constitutionality of the Corporate Transparency Act or CTA, a federal law with far-reaching consequences that will impact millions of Americans, particularly small business owners.

This case exemplifies government overreach relative to the collection of data by the feds without rational reasoning. It imposes legal burdens and costs on small business owners, including potential federal prosecution, daily fines, imprisonment, or any combination of the same. The name of the case is Hotze, M.D., et al. v U.S. Department of Treasury.
