HRS §428-207
How to fix a mistake in a filed company record
A limited liability company can fix a record it filed with the state if the record has a wrong statement or a bad signature or certification. To fix it, the company must prepare and file articles of correction. The correction goes back to the original filing date, but people who relied on the old record are not bound until the correction is filed.
The statute, as written — Correcting filed record
(a) A limited liability company or foreign limited liability company may correct a record filed by the director if the record contains a false or erroneous statement or was defectively certified or signed. (b) A record is corrected: (1) By preparing articles of correction that: (A) Describe the record, including its filing date, or have attached a copy of it to the articles of correction; (B) Specify the incorrect statement and the reason it is incorrect or the manner in which the certification or signing was defective; and (C) Correct the incorrect statement or defective certification or signing; and (2) By delivering the articles of correction to the director for filing. (c) Articles of correction are effective retroactively to the effective date of the record they correct. However, a person who has relied on the uncorrected record and was adversely affected by the correction is not bound by the correction until the articles of correction are filed.
