Tax Planning For Marijuana Dealers, Benjamin Leff Feb 2013

Tax Planning For Marijuana Dealers, Benjamin Leff

Scholarly Articles in Law Reviews & Journals

In recent years, many states have legalized marijuana while the federal government continues to consider all marijuana sales and use illegal. But marijuana industry insiders consider not federal criminal law but federal tax law to be the biggest impediment to the development of a legitimate marijuana industry. State-sanctioned marijuana sellers are required to pay federal income taxes pursuant to § 280E, a formerly largely symbolic provision that Congress enacted to punish drug dealers, but which now could potentially drive legitimate marijuana sellers underground.

This paper proposes a tax strategy that enables state-sanctioned marijuana sellers to avoid the impact of § …

Progressive Lawyering In Politically Depressing Times: Can New Models For Institutional Self-Reform Achieve More Effective Structural Change?, Susan D. Carle Feb 2008

Progressive Lawyering In Politically Depressing Times: Can New Models For Institutional Self-Reform Achieve More Effective Structural Change?, Susan D. Carle

Working Papers

This Essay examines both the promise and the drawbacks of new models of achieving institutional self-reform through voluntary, self-designed processes, such as those undertaken in a case study Susan Sturm presents of the National Science Foundation's (NSF's) ADVANCE initiative, a program designed to encourage universities to make progress in eliminating the severe under-representation of women in academic positions in the sciences.
