§ 36.17. EFFECT OF FILING. Nothing in this chapter shall

professional name any right to use the name when contrary to the
common law or statutory law of unfair competition, unfair trade
practices, common law copyright, or similar law. The mere filing of
an assumed business or professional name certificate pursuant to
this chapter shall not constitute actual use of the assumed name set
