If the Secretary of State refuses to file a document delivered for filing, the domestic or foreign entity that submitted the document for filing may appeal the refusal within thirty (30) days after the return of the document to the Chancery Court of the First Judicial District of Hinds County, Mississippi.The appeal is commenced by petitioning the court to compel filing the document and by attaching to the petition the document and the explanation of the Secretary of State for the refusal to file.
The court may summarily order the Secretary of State to file the document or take other action the court considers appropriate.
The court's final decision may be appealed as in other civil proceedings.
