The members shall retain the right to revoke the dissolution in accordance with § 48-249-613, and the right to remove or appoint directors, managers or officers.

The filing of a notice of dissolution with the secretary of state does not affect any remedy in favor of the LLC, or any remedy against it or its members, directors, managers or officers in those capacities, except as provided in § 48-249-611.
