47-24-14.1. Denial of reinstatement--Appeal--Court action. If the secretary of state denies a corporation's petition for reinstatement following administrative dissolution, he shall serve the corporation under § 47-22-48 with a written notice that explains the reason or reasons for denial. The corporation may appeal the denial of reinstatement to the circuit court of the county where the corporation's registered office or principal office was located within thirty days after service of the notice of denial is perfected. The corporation appeals by petitioning the court to set aside the dissolution and attaching to the petition copies of the secretary of state's certificate of dissolution, the corporation's application for reinstatement and the secretary of state's notice of denial. The court may order the secretary of state to reinstate the dissolved corporation or may take other action the court considers appropriate. The court's final decision may be appealed in the same manner as in any other civil proceedings.
