Posted On : 28th Aug 2009

Yes, if any entity who would not get certificate of authority then:

  • the entity cannot maintain an action, suit, or proceeding in a court until it registers;
  • the attorney general can enjoin the entity from transacting business in the state;
  • the entity is subject to a civil penalty equal to all fees and taxes that would have been imposed if the entity had registered when first required; and
  • If the entity has transacted business in the state for more than ninety (90) days, the secretary of state may condition the filing of the registration on the payment of a late filing fee equal to the registration fee for each year or part of year of delinquency.
