Bittner v. United States
This episode of MACREADS.COM covers the United States Supreme Court's February 28, 2023, opinion in Bittner v. United States.
Summary: The Government fined an individual $2.72 million for failing to file timely reports disclosing 272 foreign accounts as required by the Bank Secrecy Act. The individual challenged the fine, arguing that it should have been calculated based on the number of untimely reports, not the number of accounts involved. SCOTUS held that under the Act, the maximum penalty for a nonwillful failure to file a report accrues on a per-report, not a per-account, basis.
