The SEC has posted an invitation for interested parties to provide preliminary comments regarding the rulemaking it must conduct in connection with the JOBS Act. While it is not common practice for the SEC to solicit public comments before it has actually promulgated proposed rules, it is not unprecedented either—it employed the same process in connection with its substantial rulemaking responsibilities under the Dodd-Frank Act. Interested parties will also have an opportunity to comment on JOBS Act rules during the formal comment period after publication of proposed regulations in the Federal Register. The preliminary comments can be submitted electronically here.
Please contact us if you would like assistance in submitting comments.

While we are pleased to have you contact us by telephone, surface mail, electronic mail, or by facsimile transmission, contacting Kilpatrick Townsend & Stockton LLP or any of its attorneys does not create an attorney-client relationship. The formation of an attorney-client relationship requires consideration of multiple factors, including possible conflicts of interest. An attorney-client relationship is formed only when both you and the Firm have agreed to proceed with a defined engagement.
