Welcome to Appealing Strategies, the podcast that equips trial and appellate lawyers with actionable tips to help them succeed on appeal. Hosted by Douglas Lang and Booker T. Shaw—both retired appellate judges and seasoned attorneys at Thompson Coburn—this episode brings together a powerhouse panel of legal minds: Cheryl Kelly, Barry Fischer, and Kenyen R. Brown.

They dive into the ongoing controversies surrounding the Corporate Transparency Act (CTA), exploring its origins, implications, and the wave of litigation challenging its constitutionality. You’ll hear about why the CTA was enacted, what it requires from corporations and their beneficial owners, and the sheer scale of entities impacted. The conversation unpacks the key legal arguments from recent high-profile cases, the use of nationwide injunctions, and the complexities of jurisdiction and standing for plaintiffs.
