The County Clerk will not file the form without an original signature. (Please note: If the registrant or business name is a Corporation or Limited Liability Company (LLC), you must also send a copy of the California Articles of Incorporation or Articles of Organization for that name. This copy will be sent to the Los Angeles County Clerk along with your form.)
