§425-8 Reservation of partnership name. The exclusive right to the use of a partnership name may be reserved by any person intending to organize a domestic partnership, by any domestic partnership intending to change its name, by any foreign partnership intending to do or carry on any business in the State or to take, hold, sell, demise, or convey real estate or other property therein, by any foreign partnership authorized to do or carry on any business in the State or to take, hold, sell, demise, or convey real estate or other property therein and intending to change its name, or by any person intending to organize a foreign partnership and intending to have the partnership to do or carry on any business in the State or to take, hold, sell, demise, or convey real estate or other property therein.
Reservations shall be made by filing with the director of commerce and consumer affairs an application in such form as the director may prescribe to reserve a specified partnership name, and payment to the director of a fee equivalent to that paid by a corporation for the same service. If the director finds that the name is available for partnership use, the director shall reserve the name for the exclusive use of the applicant for a period of one hundred twenty days. The right to the exclusive use of a specified partnership name so reserved may be transferred to any other person or partnership by filing in the office of the director a notice of a transfer executed by the applicant for whom the name is reserved specifying the name and address of the transferee.
