Comprehensive Updates in Georgia's Business Laws:
Over 200 Legislative Changes in 2024
By Eric Geringswald | CSC
Georgia lawmakers added or amended more than 200 sections of the state’s business law statutes during the 2024 legislative session, including a newly enacted article of the Commercial Code regulating controllable electronic records, such as cryptocurrency and NFTs.
What's New in the 2024 Edition
All these changes are captured in the 2024 edition of Georgia Laws Governing Business Entities Annotated. Our Legislative Analysis provides an overview of the amendments, and changes are also listed in the Table of Sections Affected.
The 2024 edition features all of Title 14 (Corporations, Partnerships and Associations), as well as well as selected sections from related titles covering securities, trademarks, arbitration, and corporate taxation.
Georgia Case Notes and Legal Developments
More than 20 new case notes summarizing recent judicial interpretations of the law from state and federal courts have been added since the previous edition. New case notes are listed in the Table of New Annotations and marked with gray bars in the book for fast identification. Also included are four full-text cases exploring recent legal developments regarding acquisitions, derivative actions, inspection of corporate books, and ratification.
More than 50 business forms for incorporation/formation, qualification, mergers, dissolution, and name reservation for all Georgia entity types are available on the LexisNexis® Store download center. A listing of the forms can be found in the book’s appendix. An up-to-date fee schedule provides a snapshot of fees for Georgia filings.
The book’s expansive index, sequential pagination, and page tabs make finding the information quicker and easier, while larger pages and a clean typeface enhance readability. As with CSC’s other annotated statutory collections, Georgia Laws Governing Business Entities Annotated is also available as an eBook and is part of the LexisNexis Digital Library.
These features, together with the up-to-date annotated business entity legislation for the state, make this publication a valuable resource for the legal and business communities in Georgia and the surrounding region.
