    Cal Supremes Limit Prop 218's Impact on Tax Initiatives, but Less Than You Might Think

    By Adam Hofmann | September 14, 2017

    On Aug. 28, 2017, the California Supreme Court issued a 5-2 split decision in California "Cannabis Coalition v. City of Upland," S234148. Immediate responses from many commentators reflect an expansive view of this decision, including a perception that the case could pave the way for communities to establish special taxes with majority voter approval, rather than the 2/3 required by Article XIII C, section 2. An alternate reading of the case, however, suggests a narrower impact from the decision.

    Sales Tax Case on Phone Books Reminder to Taxpayers Shipping Art

    By Joseph Lipari | September 7, 2017

    Tax Appeals Tribunal columnist Joseph Lipari writes that a recent decision that deals with the sales tax of "yellow pages" phone books, an industry with few participants, may seem irrelevant. But the particular issue in the case, whether certain commercial delivery services qualified as "common carriers," is of high importance to sellers and buyers of art. The narrow definition of the term advanced by the Tax Department and accepted by the ALJ is likely to dictate how art shipments will be arranged for the foreseeable future.

    The Potential Perils of Crowdfunding Donations

    By Jennifer Cona and Dana Walsh Sivak | August 30, 2017

    Jennifer Cona and Dana Walsh Sivak of Genser Dubow Genser & Cona write: The practice of crowdfunding donations remains largely unregulated, with little guidance as to how to resolve issues that may arise in the course of a fundraiser organized through a crowdfunding site. Most problems arise because well-meaning friends and relatives were unaware of the negative consequences that can result from a crowdfunding campaign and therefore failed to plan ahead to avoid them.
