I Went to Bed and the Rules Changed: the Corporate Transparency Act is Back on Hold

Client Alert
December 27, 2024

Yesterday we told you that the Fifth Circuit had reinstated the Corporate Transparency Act’s filing requirements, overturning the prior injunction [read the article here].

Now the Court has reversed course, overturned its decision from 3 days ago, and reinstated the nationwide injunction.

The United States Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit ordered on December 26, 2024 that in an effort to “preserve the constitutional status quo” while it considered the Federal Government’s appeal, it vacated the prior order for a stay of the nationwide injunction pending appeal entered on December 23, 2024, and reinstated the preliminary injunction enjoining enforcement of the CTA and its corresponding Reporting Rule.

What to do now?

As of this morning, the FinCEN website had not been updated to reflect the December 26, 2024 order. With all of the back-and-forth orders and updates, a measure of caution should be applied: proceed as-if the law could change in a matter of days. That is, if you have not complied with the CTA and its corresponding Reporting Rule, have all of your information ready in case the preliminary injunction is lifted again.

For guidance on complying with these updated requirements, business owners should reach out to their BMD legal advisors or contact BMD Member Blake Gerney at brgerney@bmdllc.com.
