Information maintained by the Legislative Reference Bureau
Updating the database of the Illinois Compiled Statutes (ILCS) is an ongoing process. Recent laws may not yet be included in the ILCS database, but they are found on this site as Public Acts soon after they become law. For information concerning the relationship between statutes and Public Acts, refer to the Guide.

Because the statute database is maintained primarily for legislative drafting purposes, statutory changes are sometimes included in the statute database before they take effect. If the source note at the end of a Section of the statutes includes a Public Act that has not yet taken effect, the version of the law that is currently in effect may have already been removed from the database and you should refer to that Public Act to see the changes made to the current law.

    (a) In order to amend its certificate of limited partnership, a limited partnership must deliver to the Secretary of State for filing an amendment or, pursuant to Article 11, articles of merger stating:
        (1) the name of the limited partnership;
        (2) the date of filing of its initial certificate; and
        (3) the changes the amendment makes to the
    
certificate as most recently amended or restated.
    (b) A limited partnership shall promptly deliver to the Secretary of State for filing an amendment to a certificate of limited partnership to reflect:

limited partnership's activities under Section 803(c) or (d).
    (c) A general partner that knows that any information in a filed certificate of limited partnership was false when the certificate was filed or has become false due to changed circumstances shall promptly:

        (2) if appropriate, deliver to the Secretary of State
    
for filing a statement of change pursuant to Section 115 or a statement of correction pursuant to Section 207.

    (e) A restated certificate of limited partnership may be delivered to the Secretary of State for filing in the same manner as an amendment. A restated certificate of limited partnership shall supersede the original certificate of limited partnership and all amendments thereto filed prior to the effective date of filing the restated certificate of limited partnership.
