The Clerk’s Office announced on March 26 a new model form for Rule 7.7 corporate disclosure statements. The updated form features separate sections designed specifically for corporations and limited liability companies or limited partnerships.
This update aims to clarify the process of submitting required disclosures by providing distinct areas tailored to different business entities. By distinguishing between corporations and LLCs or LPs, the Clerk’s Office seeks to make compliance with Rule 7.7 more straightforward.
The introduction of this revised model form is intended to help parties accurately disclose their organizational structure in legal proceedings, which can be important for transparency and conflict-of-interest checks.
No additional background information about previous versions of the form or specific implementation details was provided in the announcement.
