To the Point

I want to spend the rest of my life creating and directing musical choral ensembles. Is a nonprofit organization the way to go?

Lessons from Litigation

• Bankrupt charity entitled to trust distribution
• Director not indemnified as plaintiff
• Nonprofit that squandered money in suit must pay more
• Shut-down overrides bar against moving resident of home

Tax Matters

• IRS “announces” compensation scrutiny
• Property exempt partly as home and partly as place of worship

Employment Law

• How broad is “ministerial exemption” for church employment?

Say That Again?
