The Supreme Court ended its 2023-2024 term with a series of blockbuster decisions that reshaped how courts evaluate agency action. Loper Bright upended a four-decade-old framework that accorded deference to agency interpretation of federal statutes. And in Jarkesy, Ohio v. EPA, and Corner Post, the Court rewrote the rules governing what issues agencies can decide in an administrative process, how agencies must engage with public comments and criticisms of proposed action, and the deadline to sue to challenge regulations, respectively. Together, these decisions held the potential to curb agency power significantly. One year on, what effects have we seen from these decisions? How are courts and agencies responding? As regulatory power evolves, lawyers advising clients in regulated industries — and those engaging with or challenging federal agency action — need to understand concrete impacts of these cases to inform how they adapt to this new and still-evolving landscape.

Congress is working to make the favorable Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (TCJA) provisions permanent. The TCJA substantially reduced the rate of federal corporate income tax on C corporations relative to pass through entity owners. In addition, §199A provided a limited deduction narrowing the differential between C corporations and pass through entities but restricted relief to non-service businesses and included a ceiling limit. Other favorable TCJA aspects some hope to see extended include exit strategies for owners of C corporations in start-ups and non-service sectors, such as capital gains exclusions under §1202 or reinvestment deferrals under §1045—benefits largely unavailable to unincorporated business owners. With a possible TCJA extension (one that could include last-minute add-ons) and a summer Budget Reconciliation Bill prospect, now is the opportune time to assess the tax implications of entity selection and conversions. This webcast will cover need-to-know tax considerations and strategies for conversions large and small - register today!
