Notwithstanding Sections 5.053, 5.102, and 5.153, the secretary of state may accept a name if the entity or person seeking acceptance of the filing instrument with the indistinguishable name delivers to the secretary of state a certified copy of the final judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction that establishes the entity's or person's right to the name in this state.
