Resident agent: Resignation; designation of successor after death, resignation or removal from State.
1. A resident agent who wishes to resign shall:
(a) File with the Secretary of State a signed statement in the manner provided pursuant to subsection 1 of NRS 78.097 that he is unwilling to continue to act as the resident agent of the registered limited-liability partnership for the service of process; and
(b). Pay to the Secretary of State the filing fee set forth in subsection 1 of NRS 78.097.
Ê A resignation is not effective until the signed statement is filed with the Secretary of State.
2. The statement of resignation may contain a statement by the affected registered limited-liability partnership appointing a successor resident agent. A certificate of acceptance signed by the new agent, stating the full name, complete street address and, if different from the street address, the mailing address of the new agent, must accompany the statement appointing the new resident agent.
3. Upon the filing of the statement with the Secretary of State, the capacity of the person as resident agent terminates. If the statement of resignation contains no statement by the registered limited-liability partnership appointing a successor resident agent, the resigning agent shall immediately give written notice, by certified mail, to the registered limited-liability partnership of the filing of the statement and its effect. The notice must be addressed to a managing partner in this State.
4. If a resident agent dies, resigns or removes himself from the State, the registered limited-liability partnership shall, within 30 days thereafter, file with the Secretary of State a certificate of acceptance, signed by the new resident agent. The certificate must set forth the full name, complete street address and, if different from the street address, the mailing address of the newly designated resident agent.
5. If a registered limited-liability partnership fails to file a certificate of acceptance within the period required by subsection 4, it is in default and is subject to the provisions of NRS 87.520.
