John Fletcher, a partner on the state and local tax team in the Jackson office, was quoted in the article "3 Takeaways For State Tax Pros From Justices' Pork Ruling" published by Law360 Tax Authority on May 15, 2023. The article covers the recent US Supreme Court decision narrowly upholding a California proposition banning pork from pigs born to mothers raised in confined conditions and explores how the ruling relates to potential tax litigation over similar state policies. John, who attended the Pork Producers oral argument, discussed how the Court's decision might impact future Commerce Clause challenges to state taxes if taxpayers are forced to proceed under the Pike balancing test.
