Colorado Revised Statutes Title 7. Corporations and Associations § 7-90-307. Appeal from secretary of state's refusal to file document

(1) If the secretary of state refuses to file a document delivered to the secretary of state for filing, the person causing the document to be delivered to the secretary of state for filing may, within forty-five days after the effective date of the notice of the refusal given by the secretary of state pursuant to section 7-90-306(3), appeal to the district court for the county in this state in which the street address of the entity's principal office is located, or, if the entity has no principal office in this state, to the district court for the county in which the street address of its registered agent is located or, if the entity has no registered agent, to the district court for the city and county of Denver. The appeal is commenced by petitioning the court to compel the filing of the document by the secretary of state and by attaching to the petition a copy of the document and a copy of the secretary of state's notice of refusal.

(2) The court may order the secretary of state to file the document or to take such other action as the court considers appropriate.

(3) The court's order or decision may be appealed as in other civil proceedings.
