SECTION 79.24. Correction of Filed Documents

(a) Documents may be corrected to contain only those statements which lawfully could have been included in the original document. A certificate of correction may not be used to revoke a previously filed document or to alter, include or delete a statement, which by its alteration, inclusion or deletion, would have caused the secretary of state to determine that the document did not conform to law at the time of the original filing.

(b) The secretary of state will not refund any portion of a fee calculated on the basis of information required to be set forth in a document by statute upon the subsequent submission and filing of a certificate of correction correcting the information upon which the fee was based.
