DescPublic interest litigation - Representing Tennesseans whose constitutional rights have been violated in court; filing or signing off on amici briefs in key court cases related to state and federal constitutional issuesLegal Foundation - to litigate pro bono on behalf of Tennessee clients whose economic liberty, property rights, or other constitutional protections have been violated. Cases: Anderson v. Metro Nashville - This case involves a challenge in state court to Nashville's unconstitutional, unfair, and arbitrary limit on the use of one's own home as a short term rental property. Our clients, and numerous other Nashville homeowners, cannot rent their home short term due to a cap on the number of permits made available by the city, which have all been allocated. A victory in this lawsuit will allow our clients to use their home as they see fit, along with many other Nashville homeowners. It will also expand rental opportunities for travelers to Nashville, where there is a well-documented hotel shortage. Fees sought are to be determined, as the case is still in litigation.Desc

Part X : FIN48 FootnoteWe are a tax-exempt organization under Section 501(c) (3) of the Internal Revenue Code, and are classified as an organization that is not a private foundation as defined in Section 509(a) of the Internal Revenue Code.

Further, we do not believe that we have any unrelated business income, which would be subject to federal taxes. We are not subject to examination by U.S. federal or state taxing authorities for years before 2012.
