Program Description
The 2008 National Institute on Criminal Tax Fraud will meet this fall for the 25th consecutive year in San Francisco. This Institute, with a quarter of a century of history, is the annual gathering of the national tax fraud bar. Each year the Institute presents outstanding panelists to an audience as sophisticated and varied as the speakers. This 25th Anniversary year will be no exception.
As it has throughout its tenure, the Institute will offer the most knowledgeable panelists from the defense bar, the government and the judiciary. The sessions are regularly attended by judges, federal, state and local prosecutors, other law enforcement officials, defense attorneys, corporate in-house counsel, accountants and members of the academic community. The audience includes attorneys and accountants just beginning to practice in the tax fraud area, as well as highly experienced practitioners. The program always provides valuable updates on new developments and strategies, along with the opportunity to meet colleagues, renew acquaintances and exchange ideas. Attendees consistently give the Institute high ratings for the exceptional quality of its publication.
This year the Institute will continue its focus on a number of important emerging areas: The IRS’s increased use of money laundering charges, forfeitures and asset freezes; the Government’s continued efforts to obtain offshore bank records through the expansion of Treaties and other arrangements; and the continuing controversy regarding the application of the federal sentencing guidelines. In addition, the program also will provide an annual general overview of nuts and bolts techniques for responding to a criminal tax fraud investigation.Program Location and Hotel
