Effective: 6-19-15 |

Current law authorizes a business entity to use, reserve, or register a name that is identical or deceptively similar to a name that is used, reserved, or registered by another entity if the other entity or the person for whom the name is reserved or registered consents in writing. Senate Bill 1313 amends the Business Organizations Code to condition that authorization on the consent being notarized and provided to the secretary of state.
