In a concise and readable format,
Nonprofit Law, Third Edition
provides up-to-date information about the legal issues that can arise at every turn of a Section 501(c)(3) organization—from inception to termination. The book is designed to satisfy the highest academic requirements for law, business, and public policy students and to provide a helpful desk reference to practicing nonprofit professionals. It uses cases, hypothetical questions, and examples from current events to explore the corporate, tax, and other regulatory issues that nonprofit managers, board members and their lawyers ultimately face.
New to the Third Edition:
The implications of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (2017) and the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security (CARES) Act (2020) for nonprofit organizations
Up-to-date analysis of nonprofit issues in the news, such as breaches of fiduciary duties, impermissible political activity, and nonprofit bankruptcies
Introduction of some older cases, which provide background for the more modern cases
Updated statistics throughout the book
Professors and students will benefit from:
A practical approach that that does not assume earlier background with tax, trusts, or corporations
Cradle to grave organization of topics
Consideration of the theory behind the rules and their public policy implications
Notes, questions, and problems in each chapter that add context to the text
All relevant statutes and regulations are within the text
