Prior to coming to Maine Law in 2003, Professor Maine taught at Texas Wesleyan University School of Law, the University of Idaho School of Law, and Stetson University School of Law, in various areas of tax law. Before entering teaching, he practiced law at Holland & Knight in Tampa, Florida.
Professor Maine has recently published two books: Intellectual Property Taxation: Problems and Materials (Carolina Academic Press 2004) and Intellectual Property Taxation: Transaction and Litigation Issues (BNA 2003). In addition, he has published numerous articles, including "Linking Limited Liability and Entity Taxation: A Critique of the ALI Reporters' Study on the Taxation of Private Business Enterprises," "Evaluating Subchapter S in a Check-the-Box World," "Tax Consequences of Community Income: Problems and Planning Opportunities During Divorce," and "The Importance of Ethics and Morality in Today's Legal World." His most recent article, "Taxing the New Intellectual Property Right," has been published as the lead article in Volume 56 of the Hastings Law Journal.
Professor Maine, a certified public accountant, is a frequent speaker at academic conferences and bar association meetings on taxation. He recently presented a paper on Internet Taxation at an ALI-ABA Course of Study in Washington, D.C. He also recently was a panelist at a symposium on Emerging Intellectual Property Issues at the Southern Methodist University Dedman School of Law in Dallas, Texas. His topic was "Taxing Domain Names." He also spoke to the Intellectual Property Law Section of the Dallas Bar Association on "Taxation of Intellectual Property: Recent Transaction and Litigation Issues."
Professor Maine's hobbies are fly fishing and intellectual property taxation, but not necessarily in that order.
