Bill Summary
The purpose of this bill is to provide for the use of "A.C." as a name ending for an accounting corporation.
AI Summary
This bill amends West Virginia law to allow accounting corporations to use the abbreviation "A.C." as a suffix in their corporate names, in addition to the existing option of using "accounting corporation." This change, effective from July 1, 2001, also explicitly prohibits the use of other words or abbreviations that suggest a corporation, such as "company" or "incorporated," if the name already includes "accounting corporation" or "A.C." This provision aims to standardize and clarify the naming conventions for accounting corporations within the state.
