In his latest article published with TaxNotes, “Is the DOJ’s Dismantling of the Tax Division Illegal?“, firm partner Joseph A. Rillotta, together with Carolyn Schenck and Jay Nanavati, examines the legal and practical implications of the U.S. Department of Justice’s decision to dismantle its Tax Division. The authors explore whether the reorganization complied with the Administrative Procedure Act and analyze how the changes may affect criminal tax enforcement, taxpayer rights, and the consistency of tax administration nationwide.
