     § 313.  Cancellation or withdrawal.
        (a)  General rule.--A fictitious name registration under this
     chapter may be cancelled, or a party to such a registration may
     withdraw therefrom, by filing in the department an application
     for cancellation of fictitious name registration or an
     application for withdrawal from fictitious name registration, as
     the case may be, which shall be executed as provided in
     subsection (b), and shall set forth:
            (1)  The fictitious name as theretofore registered.
            (2)  An identification of the last preceding filing in
        the department with respect to the fictitious name.
            (3)  A statement that the fictitious name registration is
        cancelled, or that one or more, but less than all, parties to
        the registration have withdrawn from the business or other
        activity carried on, under or through the fictitious name.
            (4)  Such other information necessary to the
        administration of this chapter as the department may specify
        by regulation.
        (b)  Execution.--An application under this section may be
     executed in the same manner as an application for amendment of
     fictitious name registration except that an application for
     withdrawal from fictitious name registration may be executed
     solely by the withdrawing party.
        (c)  Cross reference.--See 15 Pa.C.S. § 134 (relating to
     docketing statement).
