In this episode of the SALT Shaker Podcast, host and Eversheds Sutherland Associate Jeremy Gove is joined by Partner Jeff Friedman for a review of five things he’s learned about litigating state tax cases throughout his career. What can old cases teach us about new ones?
Highlights of Jeff’s takeaways include:
Courts returned to business in a big way in 2021, following the pandemic-related slowdown in 2020. Over the year, there were several noteworthy income tax and sales tax decisions, as well as two First Amendment cases from the highest courts in Maryland and Ohio that reached opposite results and could be headed to the U.S.
In an article for Bloomberg Tax, Eversheds Sutherland attorneys Dan Schlueter and Fahad Mithavayani highlight how Hawaii and Texas are the latest states to join the trend to restrict the discoverability of attorney communications with expert witnesses and what it means for state tax litigation.
On May 18, Eversheds Sutherland SALT attorneys presented at the TEI Denver state and local tax seminar on a variety of state and local tax topics. PowerPoint slides for our presentations can be found below.
