What type of claims are not covered by the American Jobs Creation Act of 2004?

The American Jobs Creation Act of 2004 does not cover claims for the recovery of debts, breach of contract, consumer claims, fraud and others. If the plaintiff were on a contingent fee arrangement with his or her lawyer for cases such as these, any recovery payable to the lawyer would be taxable income to the plaintiff.
