§ 18-583. Fraternal beneficiary societies - Change of name

Any fraternal beneficiary society incorporated under the laws of

this state may change its corporate name on application by its

governing body to the Insurance Commissioner of the state. The name

selected shall not be such as will appear to be so near the name of

any other association or society now doing business in this state as

to cause confusion in the minds of the people, or to interfere with

the corporate name of such existing association or corporation. On

the approval of the Insurance Commissioner the Secretary of State

shall cause an amended charter to issue, signed by the Governor and

attested by the seal of state, changing the name of such beneficiary

society in accordance with the recommendation of the Insurance

Commissioner, and such change of name shall have the same effect as

if originally set forth in the original articles of incorporation.
