Synopsis As Introduced
Amends the Assumed Business Name Act. Provides that a person conducting or transacting business under an assumed name at his or her residence is not required to include his or her home address while complying with the publication requirements of the Act if that person's safety would be put at risk by publishing his or her home address. Provides that, instead, the person may provide a post office box address.

House Floor Amendment No. 3
Replaces everything after the enacting clause. Amends the Assumed Business Name Act. Provides that a person conducting or transacting business under an assumed name at his or her personal residence may list the address of the county clerk of the county of his or her personal residence as the default agent for service of process to meet the publication requirements of this Act if the following conditions are met: (1) the person reasonably believes that publishing his or her home address would put his or her safety at risk, and lists the reasoning for such on the form submitted to the county clerk, which shall be kept confidential; (2) the form is accompanied by a court order, police report, or other indicia that there is a true need for the address to be kept confidential; and (3) the person provides the address of his or her residence, which shall be kept confidential, to the county clerk. Provides that the county clerk may charge a nominal fee for performing this service and shall provide a check box on its form for a confidential address request and room for the explanation for the request. Requires the county clerk to notify the business when the county clerk has been served with process.

Senate Floor Amendment No. 1
Provides that if a person lists the county clerk as the default agent for service of process, the request must be accompanied by a court order or police report. Removes a provision permitting the form to be accompanied by some other indicia that there is a true need for the person's address to be kept confidential.
