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.
