Supplemental Narrative

Additional Explanations

Part III, Line 4A

The fairness center determines which cases to accept based on the issues involved, the impact for the litigant, and the public interest, and not based on any expectation of financial award or benefit for the fairness center. The fairness center's matters in dispute seek to clarify, defend, or expand public employees' constitutional, statutory, and other legal rights. Some matters involve protecting the rights of public employees who seek to vindicate freedoms of speech, association, or other constitutional rights. Other matters involve a union's failure to represent employees as required by law. Additionally, the fairness center represents public employees investigating corruption or waste within their unions or who have been subjected to harassment, discrimination, or retaliation. The fairness center also represents clients concerning freedom of information requests made pursuant to federal, state, and local law. The fairness center's litigation benefits the public at large because clients' cases are representative of a broad public interest in clarifying, defending and/or expanding the constitutional, statutory, and other legal rights of public employees. The fairness center does not accept fees for services from its clients. However, in some circumstances, attorneys' fees and costs will be sought and awarded pursuant to federal or state law from opposing parties. Attorneys' fees received during the fiscal year are recorded on part viii, line 2a as "non-client legal fees."

FORM 990, PART XI, LINE 9:

Gain on cancellation of lease 23,312.

Part XII, Line 2C

The organization's president/general counsel is responsible for the oversight of the audit and selection of an independent accountant. The audited financials and independent accountant selection are presented to the board of trustees for final approval.

Financial Statement Notes

PART X, LINE 2:

The organization has been recognized by the internal revenue service (irs) as a tax-exempt organization under section 501(c)(3) of the internal revenue code (the code) and is exempt from federal income taxes on related income pursuant to section 501(a) of the code. The organization adheres to the provisions of asc 740, income taxes (asc 740). Asc 740 establishes rules for recognizing and measuring tax positions taken in an income tax return, including disclosures of uncertain tax positions (utps). Asc 740 mandates that companies evaluate all material income tax positions for periods that remain open under applicable statutes of limitation, as well as positions expected to be taken in future returns. The utp rules then impose a recognition threshold on each tax position. An organization can recognize an income tax benefit only if the position has a "more likely than not" (i.e., more than 50 percent) chance of being sustained on the technical merits. For the years ended september 30, 2024 and 2023, the organization has taken no material tax positions on its applicable tax filings that do not meet the "more likely than not" threshold. As a result, no amount for utps has been included in the financial statements. Management believes it is not subject to income tax examinations for years prior to 2021.

PART XI, LINE 2D - OTHER ADJUSTMENTS:

Gain on cancellation of lease 23,312.

IRS990ScheduleD/SupplementalInformationDetail/ExplanationTxt0THE ORGANIZATION HAS BEEN RECOGNIZED BY THE INTERNAL REVENUE SERVICE (IRS) AS A TAX-EXEMPT ORGANIZATION UNDER SECTION 501(C)(3) OF THE INTERNAL REVENUE CODE (THE CODE) AND IS EXEMPT FROM FEDERAL INCOME TAXES ON RELATED INCOME PURSUANT TO SECTION 501(A) OF THE CODE. THE ORGANIZATION ADHERES TO THE PROVISIONS OF ASC 740, INCOME TAXES (ASC 740). ASC 740 ESTABLISHES RULES FOR RECOGNIZING AND MEASURING TAX POSITIONS TAKEN IN AN INCOME TAX RETURN, INCLUDING DISCLOSURES OF UNCERTAIN TAX POSITIONS (UTPS). ASC 740 MANDATES THAT COMPANIES EVALUATE ALL MATERIAL INCOME TAX POSITIONS FOR PERIODS THAT REMAIN OPEN UNDER APPLICABLE STATUTES OF LIMITATION, AS WELL AS POSITIONS EXPECTED TO BE TAKEN IN FUTURE RETURNS. THE UTP RULES THEN IMPOSE A RECOGNITION THRESHOLD ON EACH TAX POSITION. AN ORGANIZATION CAN RECOGNIZE AN INCOME TAX BENEFIT ONLY IF THE POSITION HAS A "MORE LIKELY THAN NOT" (I.E., MORE THAN 50 PERCENT) CHANCE OF BEING SUSTAINED ON THE TECHNICAL MERITS. FOR THE YEARS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2024 AND 2023, THE ORGANIZATION HAS TAKEN NO MATERIAL TAX POSITIONS ON ITS APPLICABLE TAX FILINGS THAT DO NOT MEET THE "MORE LIKELY THAN NOT" THRESHOLD. AS A RESULT, NO AMOUNT FOR UTPS HAS BEEN INCLUDED IN THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS. MANAGEMENT BELIEVES IT IS NOT SUBJECT TO INCOME TAX EXAMINATIONS FOR YEARS PRIOR TO 2021.
