On March 7, 2013 Governor Dave Heineman approved LB 209 that removes the requirement of businesses to file proof of publication for trade names with the county clerk’s office. Before the bill was passed, entities had to file proof of publication of the trade name with the Secretary of State and with the county clerk in the county of the principal office address within 45 days of registration with the Secretary of State. Now, proof of publication only needs to be filed with the Secretary of State’’s office within 45 days of registration. To view bill text, see the link below.
