Part IV, Line 2b:As a law firm, in some cases the organization holds clients funds in trust. Funds are paid out after settlement of the case, based on court instructions, or otherwise as appropriate.
Part X, Line 2:CRLA is exempt from taxation under Internal Revenue Code Section 501(c)(3) and California Revenue and Taxation Code Section 23701d. Generally accepted accounting principles provide accounting and disclosure guidance about positions taken by an organization in its tax returns that might be uncertain. Management has considered its tax positions and believes that all of the positions taken by CRLA in their federal and state exempt organization tax returns are more likely than not to be sustained upon examination. CRLA's returns are subject to examination by federal and state taxing authorities, generally for three and four years, respectively, after they are filed.
