| |In the state of Georgia LLPs are recorded at the county level. Since they are merely recorded not filed, the county is unable to provide a Certificate of Good Standing. |

| |I leaning toward accepting certified copy of the LLP document recorded at county in which the LLP was recoded. Is how you handle a Georgia LLP? |

|District of Columbia |We have stumbled across the very same case in DC. |
| | |
| |We had to accept certified copy of formation document from county’s court that created this partnership. |
| | |
| |It is kind of strange as GA SOS does not form LLPs but county based courts do. |
|Florida |I am not sure if that has ever occurred here but I believe we would accept the certified copy in lieu of a certificate when such is not available. |
|Georgia | |
|Hawaii |In Hawaii, we also had a Georgia LLP registration, as of 11/21/2014. We accepted a certified copy from the County . |
| |We were instructed that if the filer had the book and page number from the top of their document and the |
| |County where the LLP was registered in, it would be easier to pull the information and certify the document. |

|Louisiana |Louisiana would also accept a certified copy from the county. |
|Maine |Maine would accept a certified copy of the document by the county – our law includes: “or a document of similar import duly authenticated by the secretary of state or |
| |other official having custody of corporate records in the state or country under whose law it is incorporated” |
|Maryland | |
|Massachusetts |Massachusetts would accept only a certified copy where no good standing or legal existence is available for the entity. |

|Virginia |We also require a certificate of LLP status with a foreign LLP registration, when we can get it. Our procedures include the following: |
| |The Georgia Nuance. |
| |(i) Georgia partnerships register for LLP status by a filing an election in the Superior Court of any county in which it has an office. See Ga. Code § 14-8-62 (a). |
| |However, Georgia Superior Courts will not issue a certificate of status, so we take an authenticated copy of the LLP filing. |
| | |
| |(ii) Georgia limited partnerships register for LLP status by filing a certificate of limited partnership with the Secretary of State that has a LLLP name and a statement |
| |that the LP is a LLP. See Ga. Code § 14-8-62 (g). The Secretary of State will issue a certificate of existence for the limited partnership, from which LLP status is to |
| |be inferred from the name. The certificate does not specifically state the limited partnership has LLP status and no separate certificate of status is issued by the |
| |secretary. |
