Akerman's Tax Practice Group Co-Chair David Blum will address the practical impacts and Constitutional limitations of the Chicago's Digital Lease Transaction Tax and the statewide "Leveling the Playing Field for Illinois Retail Act" at the Institute for Professionals in Taxation (IPT) Chicago Chapter meeting.

With both taxes generating significant news and litigation with national implications, David and his fellow panelist, Julie Sochacki, Director - State and Local Tax, Andersen Tax, will discuss how these regimes apply to interstate transactions for sellers without a physical presence in Illinois and the status of recent cases challenging this destination-based sourcing logic.
