Carleigh Lowe — Mon, 13 Jun 2011 12:00:44 +0000

The Court of Chancery, as many of you know is one of the great perks of incorporating in Delaware. At Harvard Business Services we like to keep up with the latest news regarding nominations, here’s an excerpt from a delawareonline.com article on the latest breaking news.

Vice Chancellor Leo E. Strine Jr., the colorful and sometimes combative judge in Delaware’s Court of Chancery, has been nominated to lead the forum considered the premier venue for corporate battles and the linchpin to the state’s lucrative incorporations franchise.

Gov. Jack Markell announced the nomination Wednesday, just one week before the scheduled retirement of Chancellor William B. Chandler III, whose last day is June 17.

Strine, 47, who is widely known in America’s corporate law community as a highly intelligent and talented jurist, has served on the court since 1998 as one of four vice chancellors. In that position, Strine developed a national reputation for his penetrating opinions and courtroom humor.

Senate Passes Repeal of 1099 Reporting Rule for Small Businesses

Carleigh Lowe — Thu, 07 Apr 2011 12:00:32 +0000

On Tuesday April 5, 2011 the Senate voted overwhelmingly to repeal a provision of last year’s health care act that would have required small businesses to submit a Form 1099 for every vendor that received payments of $600 or more a year. Democrats and Republicans agreed that the new reporting requirement would be too expensive and time-consuming, and the repeal passed by a vote of 87-12.

Update on 1099 Tax Reporting Law Status

Brett Melson — Mon, 07 Mar 2011 12:00:33 +0000

Small businesses around the country have been worried about the massive paperwork burden included within the Healthcare bill passed last year. The new law, which takes effect January 1, 2012, requires them to provide 1099 forms to every person or business with which they spend $600 or more each year. (For more information on this see our previous blog post: http://blog.delawareinc.com/2010/05/new-tax-law-affects-small-businesses/ )

Lawmakers have been debating for months over how to deal with the 1099 provision, named for the IRS form that it requires. On February 2^nd, small business cheered as a successful bi-partisan vote in the U.S. Senate took place to repeal the 1099 requirement. In the January 25^th State of the Union address the President called the reporting rules a “flaw” in the Healthcare Law.

The House of Representatives is working on this and now has two bills passed by the Ways and Means Committee to be considered by the chamber as a whole, and is expected to pass with flying colors.

When and if the 1099 provision is repealed, small business will be greatly relieved, as the law could have burdened small owners with unnecessary paperwork which is involved in complying. Smalls business across the nation are optimistic about the repealing of this legislation, we will keep you posted!
