Federal Tax ADVISORY: Last Granite Trust Ruling LTR 201419011

June 2, 2014 By Jasper L. (Jack) Cummings, Jr.

This advisory discusses GraniteTrust Co. v. U.S., which ruled that a parent’s sale of more than 20 percent of the stock of a subsidiary to an unrelated person was a proper set up for a taxable liquidation of the subsidiary, and how even though the IRS announced it would no longer rule on Granite Trust -type liquidations, there are still several rulings in the pipeline—most recently, LTR 201419011.

The advisory is provided on the Alston & Bird website: www.alston.com/advisories/fed-tax-june-2014
