All News June 2, 2022

Getnick Law’s Neil Getnick and Courtney Finerty-Stelzner published a Law360 op-ed regarding proposed changes to New York’s tax whistleblower law. The op-ed explains that “[t]he bill to amend New York’s False Claims Act . . . to apply to wealthy individuals and businesses that knowingly fail to file tax returns is a small but crucial change to the law that will combat invisible fraud and return stolen revenue to New York.”

[Update: on May 3, 2023, the Governor signed into law legislation imposing liability on non-filers as Getnick and Finerty-Stelzner advocated for in their op-ed].
