The Financial Crimes Enforcement Network (FinCEN) has appealed a Texas court injunction that blocks the nationwide enforcement of the Corporate Transparency Act (CTA) just four weeks ahead of a critical reporting deadline. The CTA requires small- and medium-sized businesses to file Beneficial Ownership Information Reports by January 1, 2025, or risk facing fines of up to $10,000 or two years in prison. Meanwhile, TikTok is facing potential restrictions in Canada, as the company has filed a challenge against a government order to dissolve its operations in the country. Additionally, TikTok may be banned in the U.S. by January 19, 2025, unless it successfully delays the implementation of a law that could enforce such a ban. The U.S. Justice Department has requested that a court reject TikTok's request to postpone the law's enforcement.
