Welcome to the award-winning FCPA Compliance Report, the longest-running podcast in compliance. In the first episode of the 2025 FCPA Compliance Report, Tom welcomes back Jonathan Wilson, founder and CEO of the FinCEN Report, to discuss recent legal machinations surrounding the Corporate Transparency Act (CTA). They delve into a December court ruling by the Eastern District of Texas, which issued a universal injunction against the CTA, claiming it oversteps Congress’s authority under the Commerce Clause. The Fifth Circuit stay panel initially stayed this ruling but was later reinstated by the merits panel, leading the government to appeal to the Supreme Court. The episode also covers historical context, potential impacts on businesses, and predictions for future court actions regarding the CTA.
