RS 12:149 — Termination of proceedings for dissolution
§149. Termination of proceedings for dissolution
A. The court may dismiss a proceeding for dissolution under its supervision, at any time before the corporate existence ceases, upon a showing that cause for dissolution no longer exists, or on motion by the party or parties who instituted the proceeding, and shall dismiss a voluntary proceeding upon termination thereof by the shareholders as permitted by subsection B of this section.
B. At any time before the corporate existence ceases, a voluntary proceeding for dissolution may be terminated by such affirmative vote of the shareholders as was required to commence the proceeding, given at a special meeting called by the liquidator or the board of directors, the notice of which set forth consideration of termination of the proceeding as a purpose of the meeting. Certificates of such action shall be signed by an officer of the corporation and acknowledged by the officer who signed them. One certificate shall be filed with the secretary of state, who, after all fees and charges have been paid as required by law, shall file the same in his office and endorse thereon the date of filing thereof with him. One certificate shall be filed for record in the office of the recorder of mortgages of the parish in which the corporation's registered office is located, and one certificate shall be filed with the court, if the dissolution is under the supervision of the court.
C. Termination of an involuntary proceeding shall be effective upon dismissal thereof by the court. Termination of a voluntary proceeding shall be effective when the certificate is filed with the Secretary of State. Upon termination, the liquidator shall be divested of his powers, which shall revert to the directors, officers and shareholders.
D. Notice of termination of the dissolution shall be published at least once in a newspaper of general circulation in the parish in which the corporation's principal office is located.
