Corporations, Not for Profit - As enacted, establishes the county where a public benefit or mutual benefit corporation has the corporation's principal office or, if the corporation does not have a principal office located in this state, the corporation's registered office, as a venue for a proceeding by the attorney general and reporter to dissolve the corporation; establishes additional locations as venues for proceedings to dissolve a corporation by the attorney general and reporter or other authorized parties. - Amends TCA Title 48, Chapter 64.

HB 2019 amends Tennessee law to clarify where lawsuits can be filed to dissolve nonprofit corporations. It specifies that the Attorney General and Reporter can file such cases in counties where the corporation's principal office is located (or its registered office if none exists in Tennessee), where the corporation conducted activities like soliciting donations, where the Attorney General has an office, or in Davidson, Sumner, or Williamson counties. For other parties seeking dissolution, cases must be filed where the corporation's principal office was located. This bill changes venue rules for existing legal proceedings but does not create new requirements for nonprofits.
