The display or uttering by a person of a card, sign, advertisement, or other printed, engraved, electronic transmission, or written instrument or device bearing a person's name in conjunction with the words "certified public accountant" or any abbreviation thereof, or "public accountant" or any abbreviation thereof, shall be prima facie evidence in any action brought under 17-12-104 or 17-12-105 that the person whose name is so displayed caused or procured the display or uttering of such a card, sign, advertisement, or other printed, engraved, electronic transmission, or written instrument or device and that the person is holding himself or herself out to be a certified public accountant or a public accountant.
