Program Description
The 2009 National Institute on Criminal Tax Fraud will meet this fall for the 26th consecutive year in San Francisco. The Institute, now with more than 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.
As it has throughout its tenure, the Institute will feature 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 course materials.
This year the Institute will continue to focus on a number of important emerging areas:
- The government’s continued efforts to obtain offshore bank records through the expansion of
treaties and John Doe summons - The IRS’s increased use of money laundering charges, forfeitures and asset freezes
- The continuing controversy regarding the application of the federal sentencing guidelines
In addition, the program also will provide an annual general review of nuts-and-bolts techniques for responding to a criminal tax fraud investigation.
