Legal Question in Business Law in Georgia
My husband and I FILED OUR BUSINESS NAME with the Georgia Secretary of State, and we thought that THAT was all there was to beginning a CORPORATION (or to incorporate). Now, years later, we have not actually started a business; WE HAVE NOT DONE ANYTHING ELSE BEYOND THIS NAME FILING. We don't want to pay the filing fee anymore for the "incorporation", To end this, are we still required to "dissolve the corporation". Should I send in form #CD 410, and publish our notice of intent in our local newspaper? Do we have to do anything else? Thanks.

You posted a different verseion of the same question the other day.
Instead of seeing if the answer changes when you change the facts you post, do exactly what the last answer said - see a lawyer.
That is what needed to have been done before you ever filed anything. Do it now.
If you don't know exactly what you did, we certainly do not know. If there was never a corporation, there is no corporation to dissolve. However, you indicate you are paying an annual fee for an "incorporation." You need to contact the Sec of State to find out what you have done, before asking about terminating it.
