273.323 Notification to Attorney General.
The Secretary of State, on or before the last day of December of each year, may certify to
the Attorney General the names of all corporations which have given cause for
dissolution as provided in KRS 273.161 to 273.390, together with the facts pertinent
thereto. Whenever the Secretary of State shall certify the name of a corporation to the
Attorney General as having given any cause for dissolution, the Secretary of State shall
concurrently mail to the corporation at its registered office a notice that such certification
has been made. Upon the receipt of such certification, the Attorney General may file an
action in the name of the state against such corporation for its dissolution. Every such
certificate from the Secretary of State to the Attorney General pertaining to the failure of
a corporation to file an annual report shall be taken and received in all courts as prima
facie evidence of the facts therein stated. If, before action is filed, the corporation shall
file its annual report, or shall appoint or maintain a registered agent as provided in KRS
273.161 to 273.390, or shall file with the Secretary of State the required statement of
change of registered agent, such fact shall be forthwith certified by the Secretary of State
to the Attorney General and he shall not file an action against such corporation for such
cause. If, after action is filed, the corporation shall file its annual report, or shall appoint
or maintain a registered agent as provided in KRS 273.161 to 273.390, or shall file with
the Secretary of State the required statement of change of registered agent, and shall pay
the costs of such action, the action for such cause shall abate.
