Bell Nunnally Senior Associate Saba F. Syed and Associate Dominic L. Cruciani authored the Texas Lawyer piece “An Unprecedented Year in Review: Unpacking Coronavirus Relief Efforts.” The piece breaks down the recently passed American Recovery Act (ARP) federal stimulus package, exploring the relief it provides to businesses and how it squares with Texas’ progress against the pandemic and pace of reopening. Specifically, the article looks at ARP’s impact on issues including: additional PPP funds, small venue relief through the Shuttered Venue Operator Grant (SVOG) program and the state of virus-related sick leave.

Syed and Cruciani also look at developing issues specific to Texas, such as the recent dropping of the mask mandate and pending legislation set to provide a partial corporate liability shield.
