National Talent LA Inactivates its SAG and AFTRA Franchises

National Talent LA inactivated its talent agency franchise in the Los Angeles Local on July 19, 2022 under the SAG Codified Agency Regulations Rule 16(g) and AFTRA Agency Regulations Rule 12-C. 

The effect of the inactivation is as follows:

• No member of SAG-AFTRA may hereafter engage, use, or deal through this agency.
• All contracts in force between this agency and the members of SAG-AFTRA are ipso facto and without further notice terminated except that the agency may retain and collect any commissions earned under said contracts prior to the inactivation of the franchise.
• Members shall not be under any obligation to pay commissions to the agent on any money earned by members after the termination of the agency contracts, even though such monies are earned by members on employment contracts in existence at the date of termination of the agency contracts.

Please note that TV/TH check authorizations on file with SAG-AFTRA are automatically terminated. However, performers wanting to terminate promo/commercial check authorizations will have to act to do so.

Please do not hesitate to contact the SAG-AFTRA Professional Representatives Department at (323) 549-6745 if you have any outstanding questions. Thank you.
