Client Alert | 4 min read | 01.07.25
As described in our prior client alert, on December 3, 2024, the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Texas issued an opinion and order enjoining the federal government from enforcing the CTA and a rule implementing it. The rule (BOI Rule) requires certain entities formed or registered to do business in the U.S. (Reporting Companies) to report information about themselves and their natural-person beneficial owners to the Financial Crimes Enforcement Network (FinCEN), a bureau of the U.S. Department of the Treasury that administers anti-money laundering laws. Then, on December 13, 2024, DOJ filed an “Emergency Motion for Stay Pending Appeal” in the Fifth Circuit asking that court to stay the District Court’s injunction pending appeal, or, in the alternative, to narrow the District Court’s injunction to members of the National Federation of Independent Business.
