Summary

The bill adds a new section to the Corporations Code that permits a limited‑liability company to issue a notarized certification showing it is active, in good standing, and identifying who may sign for it. The certification can be recorded with a county recorder and relied on by parties in real‑estate transactions without exposing them to liability for unknowingly relying on false statements.
