Are declaratory judgments the answer to the question of needed guidance?

In this episode of the SALT Shaker Podcast, new host and Eversheds Sutherland Associate Jeremy Gove is joined by colleagues and Eversheds Sutherland Partners Nikki Dobay and Eric Tresh to discuss declaratory judgments as a potential tool to obtain certainty on state tax matters. A recent Alaska Supreme Court decision highlights the limitations of the declaratory judgment, which only are available in limited circumstances. In lieu of declaratory relief, taxpayers can pursue other options as well. Taxpayers can work with Departments of Revenue to expedite judicial review of disputed issues, and legislation to fix the issue may also be an option. Our participants also get personal and share their thoughts about fireworks in answering the "overrated/underrated" non-tax question. Questions or comments? Email [email protected].
