Summary


Emergency Rule 12BER09-04 (Tax on Transfers of Ownership Interest in Legal Entities), provides for the application of tax to transfers of a grantor’s ownership interest in a conduit entity after the grantor has conveyed real property to the conduit entity without having paid tax on the full consideration for the real property.
