Message from the Chair

By Robert S. Horwitz

I am pleased to assume the reins as chair of the Taxation Section effective in October. By the time you read this, you will have received the brochure for the 2015 Annual Meeting of the California Tax Bar and California Tax Policy Conference, which will be held at the Hilton Torrey Pines in La Jolla. The format ofthis year's event has changed from prior years. Instead of Thursday, Friday and Saturday, this year we will kickoff with a networking dinner where attendees can meet and mingle with the speakers and other guests on Wednesday, November 5. Although there will be one program Wednesday evening, the balance of the educational programs will be on Thursday and Friday, November 6 and 7. Speakers include a number of officials from California tax agencies, the Internal Revenue Service (the "IRS") and the Department of Justice. It will be a great opportunity to meet representatives of federal and state tax agencies and to network with your peers. I look forward to seeing you there.
