We report in this issue how Pepper helped some Michigan residents who discovered that their voting registrations had been canceled in certain circumstances, without their knowledge.
Also in this issue, Richard J. Reibstein, Lisa B. Petkun and Andrew J. Rudolph report on how the proposed Fair Playing Field Act would stop businesses from misclassifying employees as independent contractors, and show how employers can evaluate their workplaces and get them into compliance.
J. Bradley Boericke notes how the "Volcker Rule" will limit financial institutions' ability to invest in or sponsor some funds, perhaps leaving small business investment companies as a remaining vehicle for such investments.
Also, we announce Pepper's Sustainability, CleanTech and Climate Change Team's new blog, Sustainability-Counsel.com, all about renewable energy, green technology, green building, climate change, financial incentives and more.
We also congratulate Pepper attorneys in Detroit honored by Best Lawyers for 2011, and our recent and upcoming events and webinars, including our Financial Services Reform Webinar Series.
