***Court suspends enforcement of the Corporate Transparency Act and associated BOI reporting.***
Court suspends enforcement of the Corporate Transparency Act and associated BOI reporting.

On December 3, 2024 a federal district court in the Eastern District of Texas granted a nationwide injunction, enjoining government enforcement of both the Corporate Transparency Act and the associated reporting rule requirements (i.e. BOI or Beneficial Ownership Information reporting).

This temporary injunction will likely be appealed by the government to the US Court of Appeals, and beyond (if necessary). It would be well to be prepared to comply with the BOI reporting rule in the event the decision is overturned, but until further notice, the mandatory reporting to the Financial Crimes Enforcement Network by “Reporting Companies” is suspended.

Worker’s Compensation in Minnesota

Blog, Employment Law

In Minnesota, the law governing work injuries falls under the Minnesota Workers’ Compensation Act (WCA). Here’s what you need to know about what to do after a work injury, how the law applies, and why working with an attorney is the best way to get a positive outcome.

What to Do:

  1. Report the Injury – Minnesota law requires you to report the injury to your employer as soon as possible. Failing to report within 30 days can have a negative impact on your claim and may result in the denial of benefits..
  2. Seek Medical Treatment – Get immediate medical care. You have the right to choose your own doctor, though your employer may suggest a medical provider.
  3. Document Everything – Make sure to document the details of your injury, the accident, witnesses, and any medical treatment. This information will be crucial for your workers’ compensation claim.
  4. File a Workers’ Compensation Claim – If your employer fails to report the injury to their insurance company, you may file the claim yourself with the Minnesota Department of Labor and Industry.

What the Law Says

Under, Minnesota’s workers’ compensation laws, if you’re injured on the job, you may be entitled to the following benefits:

  • Medical Benefits – Payment for reasonable medical care necessary to treat the work-related injury.
  • Wage-Loss Benefits – Compensation for lost wages if you’re unable to work due to the injury. Temporary total disability (TTD), temporary partial disability (TPD), permanent total disability (PTD), or permanent partial disability (PPD) may apply depending on your case.
  • Rehabilitation Benefits – Assistance with returning to work, which may include retraining or job placement services if you cannot return to your previous job.
  • Death Benefits – Paid to dependents of workers who died due to work-related injuries.
