      HOUSE BILL 16-1330
      
      
      BY REPRESENTATIVE(S) Lee, Arndt, Becker K., Fields, Kagan,
      Kraft-Tharp, Moreno, Priola, Rosenthal, Sias, Williams;
      also SENATOR(S) Scheffel and Heath,.
      
      
      Concerning authority to file a correction statement with the
           secretary of state if a document previously filed was
           delivered to the secretary of state for filing in error.
      
      
      Be it enacted by the General Assembly of the State of Colorado:
      
           SECTION 1.  In Colorado Revised Statutes, 7-90-305, amend (1)
      (b), (2) (e), and (4) as follows:
      
           7-90-305.  Correcting filed document. (1)  A person may deliver
      to the secretary of state, for filing pursuant to this part 3, a statement of
      correction to:
      
           (b)  Revoke a filed document pursuant to section 7-90-304 (3) or
      revoke a filed document that was delivered to the secretary of
      state for filing in error.
      
           (2)  A statement of correction:
      
           (e)  Shall Must, if it revokes a filed document, pursuant to section
      7-90-304 (3), state that the filed document is revoked either pursuant to
      section 7-90-304 (3) or because the filed document was delivered
      to the secretary of state for filing in error, whichever is
      applicable.
      
           (4)  Except as otherwise provided in this subsection (4), a statement
      of correction is effective on the effective date of the filed document it
      corrects or revokes as such date is stated in the records of the secretary
      of state. As to persons relying on the uncorrected filed document before
      it is corrected or revoked and adversely affected by the correction or
      revocation, a statement of correction is effective when filed. A statement
      of correction that corrects the effective date of a filed document to an
      earlier date is effective on such earlier date or on the date the filed
      document was filed in the records of the secretary of state as such date is
      stated in the records of the secretary of state, whichever is later. A
      statement of correction may not state a delayed effective date for the
      effectiveness of the statement of correction itself.
      
           SECTION 2.  Act subject to petition - effective date -
      applicability. (1)  This act takes effect at 12:01 a.m. on the day following
      the expiration of the ninety-day period after final adjournment of the
      general assembly (August 10, 2016, if adjournment sine die is on May 11,
      2016); except that, if a referendum petition is filed pursuant to section 1 (3)
      of article V of the state constitution against this act or an item, section, or
      part of this act within such period, then the act, item, section, or part will
      not take effect unless approved by the people at the general election to be
      held in November 2016 and, in such case, will take effect on the date of the
      official declaration of the vote thereon by the governor.
      
           (2)  This act applies to conduct occurring on or after the applicable
      effective date of this act.
