O.C.G.A. 14-9-1203 (2010)
14-9-1203. Nonrenewable one-year name reservation for partnerships existing prior to July 1, 1988

(a) The intent of this Code section is to ensure an orderly transition to a centralized filing system for limited partnerships and to give existing limited partnerships an opportunity to establish name availability and other files with the Secretary of State to permit an orderly implementation of this chapter.

(b) In order to preserve the availability of its name, a domestic limited partnership or a foreign limited partnership existing prior to July 1 of the year in which this chapter becomes effective may file with the Secretary of State a nonrenewable one-year name reservation after April 15 and before July 1 of the year in which this chapter becomes effective. Any of such limited partnerships which do not so file shall be subject to the name restrictions of Code Section 14-9-102.
