§ 7594 Alarm Company Trade Names

Key Takeaways

  • •If you run an alarm company and want to use a fake business name, you need a separate license for each fake name.
  • •You can't advertise or list your alarm business under any name that isn't licensed.
  • •Getting a license for another fake name follows the same rules as getting the first one.

Example

A person owns an alarm company called 'Safe Homes' but wants to also use the name 'Secure Living' for ads.

They must get a separate license for 'Secure Living' before using that name in any ads or listings. If they don't, they're breaking the law.

§ 7594 Alarm Company Trade Names

A licensee desiring to operate an alarm company operator business under one or more fictitious trade names shall apply and qualify for an initial license for each fictitious trade name. No licensee shall indicate, or cause to be indicated, in any printed matter, or in any directory or listing, that he or she conducts an alarm company operator business under any name, other than the name for which he or she is licensed. An application for a license for an additional trade name shall be in the same form and the applicant shall meet the same requirements as for an initial license. (Added by Stats. 1982, Ch. 1210, Sec. 12.)
